[edit] Summary

I found this particular example of the photograph on: http://www.poolandbilliards.aceswebworld.com/georgebalabushka.jpg

This photograph is on of only two you always see whenever a photo of George Balabushka is used anywhere--on the net and in pool and billiard magazines. As the purpose is educational, I believe this fits the four standards for invocation of the fair use doctrine. I do not know the original origin of the photo.
