A New Villa Crest

My working ideas for the new Villa Crest ...

The following AV emblem has a historical basis. It was actually used on the decorations welcoming the Queen to Aston Park in 1858 (Victoria and Albert)...

But something very similar was also used as a design for a floor mosaic in the old Trinity Stand that was demolished in 2000.

When in the Villa archives, I saw some pics of the old Trinity demolition, including ones of that mosaic. So...


Final draft...

These are by no means what I'd put forward as a final idea ... they're just elements that I've thought of.

Comments are welcome.
