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:
 * 1) It illustrates an educational article about Bicycle messengers.
 * 2) It is a historically significant photo of a group of bicycle messengers in Salt Lake City, circa 1912.
 * 3) It is of much lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
 * 4) The photo is only being used for informational purposes.
 * 5) 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.
 * 6) 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 Possibly_unfree_images/2008_July_9 for details.
