Fair use rationale[edit]

  1. Purpose and character of the use: Educational use: illustrates a scene from the history of Cleveland, Ohio.
  2. Nature of the copyrighted work: historic B/W photograph from 1930.
  3. Amount used: The image is reproduced in full. The scan is of mediocre quality, sufficient for web publication, but unfit for serious print publications.
  4. Effect of the use on the potential market or value of the image: Probably none. The CMP doesn't sell the image (and has given permission anyway), and Becker's book sales are unlikely to be reduced by this use of this image; in fact, it might rather incite Wikipedia readers to buy that book.
