The Eagle logo was based on a Syrian military badge that [[Stewart Copeland]] owned. On the cover of [[The Police]]'s first single [[Fall Out]] it can be seen on Stewart's leather jacket. He also used to wear it during concerts on a Police cap - for example on [[1977-03-24]].

The Eagle logo was based on a Syrian military badge that [[Stewart Copeland]] owned. This can be seen on [[The Police]]'s first single [[Fall Out]] and on [[Klark Kent]]'s [[Don't Care]] single (both times on Stewart's jackets). Stewart also used to wear it during concerts on a Police cap - for example on [[1977-03-24]].  
  
 
[[Peter Baylis]] took several photos of the band where Stewart also used the button on a t-shirt or jacket, one of them at the [[Marquee]] on [[1977-06-24]]. [[Henry Padovani]]'s brother Patrick attended this concert, as he was in London for three days. Henry had told Stewart that his brother could draw, so Stewart visited Patrick one morning at [[Paul Mulligan]]'s place. He asked him to make a drawing of that Eagle badge.

Introduction

This article summarizes buttons produced for The Police. There are buttons in all shapes / sizes / materials, official merchandise and non-official rip-offs.

This page presents some general buttons first - with repeated logos or catchphrases.

Then there are buttons for every LP The Police made.

  • buttons which refer to the actual album cover or album title
  • buttons which refer to a single from that album
  • various images from the release date of this LP until the next LP's release date (these images might contain photos which were taken a while before the actual LP release, but used primarily to promote it)

Eagle logo Buttons

The Eagle logo was based on a Syrian military badge that Stewart Copeland owned. This can be seen on The Police's first single Fall Out and on Klark Kent's Don't Care single (both times on Stewart's jackets). Stewart also used to wear it during concerts on a Police cap - for example on 1977-03-24.

Peter Baylis took several photos of the band where Stewart also used the button on a t-shirt or jacket, one of them at the Marquee on 1977-06-24. Henry Padovani's brother Patrick attended this concert, as he was in London for three days. Henry had told Stewart that his brother could draw, so Stewart visited Patrick one morning at Paul Mulligan's place. He asked him to make a drawing of that Eagle badge.

That design was later used for The Police concert flyers - a flyer for the cancelled 1978-01-12 concert features the Eagle drawing with an Illegal Records logo. This was also used for early The Police buttons.

Another flyer for the 1978-02-23 concert marks the first known appearance of the "May You Be With The Force" - in handwriting. A changed version of that would later appear on many buttons, badges and patches.

Stewart Copeland had seen "Star Wars" on 1977-10-21 and then again on 1978-02-01 - that slogan "May You Be With The Force" was directly inspired by the movie's catchphrase.

The Outlandos Fan Club logo also features Patrick Padovani's drawing of that Syrian military Eagle.
