Summary edit

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free logo true for Canadian General Electric
Description

This is the logo for Canadian General Electric. Further details: The early logo for the Canadian General Electric Company Limited (CGE). The trademark was registered on 09 March 1904 to the Canadian General Electric Company Limited, of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with the date of first use in Canada being March 07, 1904. This logo is similar to the standard General Electric (GE) logo, except that the letter C is squeezed in in front of "GE". This logo was eventually replaced with the standard American GE logo. The trademark is still registered, although it is currently registered to the General Electric Company in the U.S.A.

Article

Canadian General Electric

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 organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

Purpose of use

The image is used to identify the organization Canadian General Electric, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.

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 as described above.
