Arsenal crest from

Royal Arsenal's first crest, unveiled in
1888, featured three cannons viewed
Arsenal Crest used
from above, pointing northwards, similar
to the coat of arms of the Metropolitan
from 1949 to 2002
Borough ofWoolwich.Today Arsenal
crest is from 2002. Arsenal introduced a
new crest featuring more modern
curved lines and a simplified style. The
cannon once again faces east and the
club's name is written in a sans-serif
typeface above the cannon. Green was
replaced by dark blue. The new crest
received a critical response from some Arsenal first crest from
supporters. Arsenal ignored much
1888
history and tradition.
