Fair use rationale for Image:Utfosp.jpg

 

Image:Utfosp.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Abbreviation in the name KANGOL

After reading the retrospective on the official site, although a theory, in year 1938, founder Jacques Spreiregen is widely believed to combine the letters from the words [k]nitting [ang]ola and wo[ol]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.250.73.210 (talk) 06:44, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

I am wondering if anyone here knows the year that Kangol adopted its kangaroo logo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.253.222 (talk)


" I used to work for the the American parent company American Safety Corporation of Kangol around 1973 to about 1976, based in the German company Kangol-Teka GmbH that made both safety restraint belts and rubber/metal anti-vibtration components for the European Auto Industry. Kangol was certainly using its Kangaro Logo then! At that time the Amercican Safety Corporation was in Encino, California CEO was Tom O Donnel and Dick Babbit, and was making safety belts etc for Ford Motor Company and Chrysler as well as rescue equipment for the US Air Force and aviation safety belts for many airlines world wide "
