Uilda you are correct, the 49ers were in the All America Football Conference for all its 4 years 1946-49
and then joined the NFL for the 1950 season and throughout, they used the same mascot, the shootin' Prospector
Not sure when they stopped using him, but he did start in their inaugural season of '46
