Summary
This depiction of a poster was uploaded to illustrate the work of Jefferson Wood (and not the subjects on the posters). Much like some of the company logo's that are incorporated in Wikipedia, which are only to be used in the article on the company. As Jefferson Wood is primarily a graphic artist, his work is best illustrated by example. Because his company (which is in his article) produces a lot of work, other examples could be uploaded, their subject may be less known but the possible infraction of non-free image use would be the same. I have chosen the Tom Petty and the B-52's poster because they were prize winning and can be seen all over internet (and by default are more or less in the public domain). ZZ Top and Todd Rundgren (also widely available on internet) were added, as a gallery generally contains four pieces of work and these examples show a wide range within a given subject. These are typical examples of works for music acts.

To which I would like to add that many pieces of work in the Wikipedia are displayed under a similar license. Although I am aware that Wikipedia does not like quoting by example, my point is best illustrated by a typical example: the cover art for The Grand Tour(File:GrandTourLP.JPG), has the sign of the designer on the cover (identifying the designer) but is explained as "It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers, solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law". Now because I live in the European Union, I am not sure if the same rules apply to posters. If desired the resolution could be lowered. I am aware that graphic designers earn their living through copyright, but a representation that is of such a low resolution (so that it is hard to pirate it), yet being representative of the work of the artist should qualify for fair-use for the given subject.
