One of the most iconic logos in British cinema, the Rank Organisation logo featuring a man hitting a gong has embedded itself in popular culture and was parodied numerous times.

Two gongmen have starred during this logo's lifespan. From 1944-1957, heavyweight boxer "Bombardier" Billy Wells was the gongman, and from 1957-1997, it was Olympic medalist wrestler Ken Richmond (both pictured below).
