When was your mascot adopted?

Ok, so most GLOs have official symbols. ie, Pi Beta Phi's is the arrow. This important because obviously it's a part of our badge and was with us from our founding.

We also have an unoffical mascot or symbol, which is the angel. This was adopted loosely in the 1930s from rush skits and songs about Pi Phi angels and then became widespread, and was finally adopted unofficially by our national organization as well.

When was your mascot (official or unofficial) adopted? ie, the Kappa Delta teddy bear (teddy bears weren't even invented when Kappa Delta was founded), Phi Mu's Sir Fidel, SGRho's poodle? Was there a period in time when a lot of GLOs were adopting such mascots? If so why was that?
