Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This was the shirt crest of Arsenal Football Club from c.1996 to 2001. 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 a Google cache of it is here: [1]. Another copy is here: [2]. A BBC news story on the new crest is available here: [3]

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