Fair use for Bicycle messenger
Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws, and the stricter requirements of Wikipedia's non-free content policies, because:
- It illustrates an educational article about Bicycle messengers.
- It is a historically significant photo of a group of bicycle messengers in Salt Lake City, circa 1912.
- It is of much lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
- The photo is only being used for informational purposes.
- Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the educational value of the article, and helps the reader to understand the history of bicycle messengers.
- Because the image depicts a non-reproducible historic event, there is almost certainly no free equivalent.
- Note that this photo is very likely Public Domain (copyright expired), but the date of first publication cannot be positively ascertained; hence it is being licensed as FAIR USE. See Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_images/2008_July_9#Image:BikeBoys.jpg for details.
