[edit] Summary
This image is from the cover of the December 1940 issue of Astonishing Stories, illustrating the story "Half-Breeds on Venus" by Isaac Asimov. Copyright is held by the artist, Bob Sherry, or his estate.
The image was scanned from a copy of the magazine.
This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers
- to illustrate an article discussing the book in question
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.
To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
[edit] Fair use in Half-Breeds on Venus
Though this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because it is a low resolution copy of a magazine cover illustrating the article. Johnny Pez 19:02, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
