Copyrighted

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket fair use categories listed at Wikipedia:Fair use#Images or Wikipedia:Fair use#Audio_clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Johann Rattenhuber":

  • To illustrate the object in question
  • Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
  • On the English-language Wikipedia ([1]), hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([2]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed fair use rationale.

This photo was taken before 1955 in the Soviet Union. The subject died in 1957.

[edit] Fair use rationale

  1. Purpose and character of the use: To illustrate the article Johann Rattenhuber
  2. Nature of the copyrighted work: B/W mugshot, front and side views. Photo previously published in Vinogradov, V. K. et al.: Hitler's Death: Russia's Last Great Secret from the Files of the KGB, Chaucer Press, 2005; ISBN 1-904-44913-1. That book is a translation of the Russian original, published by Zvonnitsa Publishing House in 2000. I assume the photo was published in the Russian edition. The ultimate source of the photo is the KGB archives.
  3. Amount used: The image is reproduced in full, but the quality is rather poor, and it's only a thumbnail reproduction of the larger original in the book.
  4. Effect of the use on the potential market or value of the image: I don't think there is a market for this photograph. See also (3).
