Summary[edit]

Description
English: This was the crest of Arsenal Football Club from 2001 to 2002, an evolution of a logo used from c.1949 to 2002. In 2002, the club replaced the crest, stating in a press release:
"Principally, as the current crest incorporates many separate elements, which have been introduced over a number of years, there is uncertainty surrounding its exact origination. As a consequence, the Club is unable to copyright this crest."

The release is no longer available on the club website but an Internet Archive copy of it is here: [1]. Another copy is here: [2] (link now dead: Internet Archive copy here: [3]. A BBC news story on the new crest is available here: [4]

Since the club has admitted the crest is ineligible for copyright, it has been given the {{Insignia}} image tag.
