- Description:
- Printed on assignment sheet: "Rankin Smith Jr. was the designer of the new logo on the Suwanee Police cars. Mr. Smith said that although the former cars had a 'bird' on them, the bird wasn't very realistic looking, so in December 1987 he decided to design a more realistic looking Falcon." Caption: "An investigation into whether Rankin Smith Jr. sent money to a fugitive has been closed by the Gwinnett sheriff's department." Caption: "Atlanta Falcons President Rankin Smith Jr. chose the design used on Suwanee police cars. Suwanee, where the football team's training complex is located, has been officially declared 'The Home of the Falcons.' Tuesday April 12, 1988 JC"
