Article	Commerce Bancshares
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 a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. SVG is used to prevent logo degradation if re-rendered at an even smaller size..
Purpose of use	The image is used to identify the organization Commerce Bank, 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 logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. 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	The visual logo is especially important for identification because of the multitude of unrelated financial institutions separately using the brand name "Commerce Bank".
