(Resolved) Fair use rationale for Image:TennisGirl thumb.jpg
Image:TennisGirl thumb.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. BetacommandBot (talk) 09:07, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Date?
Is the date given in the article correct? I am sure that I had this poster on the wall of my workshop during a deployment in the spring and summer of 1976. rturus (talk) 15:33, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

I heard more than one people claiming that during their student days, before 1972, they had this poster on their wall. There is also a calendar from 1974 with a very similar picture that appears to belong from the same photo session as this one showing the same model, same dress, same tennis and naked posterior taken at a slightly different moment.

If the date given in the 'history' is correct, then the 'subject doubts' are groundless, because they are based on (a) a postcard allegedly with the postmark 1974, and (b) a Russian 1974 calendar (albeit the latter with a different and much less sophisticated image of possibly the same girl but certainly at a different time). Alternatively, if the published image already existed in 1974, then the date of 1977 in the 'history' must be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.34.187.209 (talk) 22:08, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Only two million copies?
Surely more were sold, world-wide, than that. 72.229.61.134 (talk) 21:44, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
