SRS Logo The Genie Lamp Dr Levine
Recently I was watching a scoliosis surgeon on a video and the old SRS logo was displayed behind him.....
On the lower left side of the logo is a scoliotic spine wrapping around a straight staff. On the lower right side, is a crooked tree supported by a tree stake.
Up at the top of the logo is a Genie lamp..... What does this signify? Is Barbara Eden (I dream of Jeannie) going to pop out? (smiley face)
Significance of the Genie in the lamp

It was Dr David B Levine who suggested they work on scoliosis in the early 1960's and Dr Moe was in agreement. This was the very beginning of the Scoliosis Research Society....They probably designed the Logo and I would love to hear Dr Levine's take on selecting the Genie lamp in the original logo.......If he is reading....
Dr Levine ran the scoliosis dept at HSS (Hospital For Special Surgery) for a really long time...He is probably the most senior scoliosis surgeon in the US today.
