The first emblem of Galatasaray was drawn by Şevki Ege, student number 333. This emblem was an eagle with stretching wings and with a ball in his mouth. "Eagle" was one of the emblems which Galatasaray club considered. However the name "eagle" wasn't accepted and thus the eagle emblem was forgotten. Later on today's GS emblem was born and accepted. Suat Başar explains the way that the GS emblem was born: The year was 1923… That year we were in "cinquieme", that is, the first grade of the lycee. Our friends, Ayetullah Emin and Şinasi
(Şahingiray), were preparing a weekly magazine called "Black Cat" and Ayetullah was writing 90 % of the magazine with his beautiful handwriting. He also decorated the pages and especially the front page of the magazine. Once we saw a "Gayin - Sin"
(G and S letters) drawn simply but elegantly on the front page. Yellow "Sin"
(S) was put into red "Gayin"
(G). This drawing would be the emblem not only of our club, but also of the whole Galatasaray.
