Fair Use Rationale in the article Guys and Dolls
[edit]

- It contributes to the article significantly.
- According to section 107 of the United States Copyright Act of 1976: "The fair use of a copyrighted work...for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching..., scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright." [1]
- The image is of considerably lower resolution than the original, and it is used for non-profit purposes. These two factors are noted as relevant by the Act.
- No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information in a historical context.
- The use of the cover will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original.
- This is a non-profit organization and we do not profit from the use of this image.
