Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free logo true for West Bromwich Albion F.C.
Description

This is the logo owned by West Bromwich Albion F.C. for the club's official crest until 2006. It is a historical logo. Its historical usage is as follows: This is a logo / badge / crest of West Bromwich Albion F.C. used from c.1900.

The crest of West Bromwich Albion F.C. first appeared early in the 20th century after the club moved to The Hawthorns.

The hawthorn bush which appears on the club's crest originates from the fact The Hawthorns, Albion's home since 1900, was built on a site where hawthorn bushes had grown. The hawthorn bush is the favourite bush of the Song thrush — known as a thostle in the Black Country. These birds were a regular site on the pre-stadium estate, and continued to make the area around The Hawthorns their home for years after.[1] The throstle was chosen to appear on the badge because the public house in which the team used to change kept a pet thrush in a cage. It also gave rise to Albion's early nickname, the Throstles.

The logo was retired in 2006 and replaced by a new badge, which enabled the club to safeguard its identity and better control the usage of the club's official logo.

Article

West Bromwich Albion F.C.

Portion used

The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

Low resolution?

The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organisation, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

Purpose of use

To illustrate the former logo being critically discussed by the article's text.

  • The image does not limit the copyright holder's ability to profit from the original source, nor will it dilute the importance or recognition of the logo in connection with its organisation.
  • The image enhances the article in which it is displayed as it part of the visual identity established by the organisation identified therein.
  • The image is used as a primary means of visually identifying commentary on crests used by the club. Its presence significantly increases a readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding.
  • The image is a low resolution, and thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods.
  • The image is not used in such a way that the reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorised by the owner of the logo.
  • The image is used in compliance with the policy for the display of sports team logos as stated at Wikipedia:logos.
Replaceable?

Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.

Other information

Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law.
