[edit] Summary

(Source: http://www.wrcase.com/homepage/images5/HomePage_12.jpg)

The use of this logo in the article W.R._Case_&_Sons_Cutlery_Co. should qualify as fair use, since the image is of low resolution, is used for identifying the subject of the article, and is for educational purposes only.

[edit] Licensing

This is a logo of an organization, item, or event, and is protected by copyright and/or trademark. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, of logos for certain uses involving identification and critical commentary may qualify as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Certain commercial use of this image may also be trademark infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Logos. This tag must have an accompanying fair use rationale which must be unique to the usage of THIS image in each article in which it is used. You must also give the source and copyright information for all fair-use images uploaded. Use of the logo here does not imply endorsement of the organization by Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Foundation, nor vice versa.

In addition to the fair-use assertion shown on this page, the copyright holder has granted permission for this image to be used in Wikipedia. This permission does not extend to third parties. This tag must be used in conjunction with another fair-use image tag. If no other tag is present on this page, and this image was uploaded after May 19, 2005, please speedily delete this image or tag it with {{db-i3}}.

Although there is an assertion that Wikipedia was granted permission to use this image, there is no information on how to verify that permission. This image uses the {{Non-free with permission}} tag but no information is given on this page to verify that permission was granted. Please add documentation of such claim if possible. This is not a deletion message, only a request for information. This message was added by — Carl (CBM · talk) 18:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. It is a low resolution copy of a logo.
2. The image is only a small portion of the commercial product.
3. The use of the logo will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to sell their products or services.
4. It illustrates educational articles about the organization represented by the logo.
5. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of topics in the article.
6. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value. A free image could not be created to replace it without itself being a derivative work.
