[edit] Summary

Album cover showing Bob Dylan at Aust Ferry terminal, 11 May 1966.

The car number plate has been digitally altered to read 1235RD - a reference to Rainy Day Women # 12 and 35.

In the background can be seen the Severn Bridge, whose opening shortly after this photograph had caused the closure of the ferry.

[edit] Licensing

Copyrighted

This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question.

It is believed that the use of a low-resolution image of this cover 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.

The template {{Non-free album cover}} requires the image to be used solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, which is not the case here. However the image is of significant historical relevance and its use is otherwise justified.

In accordance with Wikipedia non-free content policy, 10 criteria must be met. These are met for this image, as used by the article Aust Ferry. In particular:

  • 1 No free equivalent.
This image is a notable album cover of Bob Dylan at Aust Ferry, a defining event in Aust Ferry's own significance. Arguable it's the image's use on the cover of a Dylan album itself that made the ferry notable, not the mere fact that Dylan used it.
  • 3 (b) Minimal extent of use.
Any lower resolution would make significant details invisible, such as the ticket office sign or the Severn Bridge in the background.
  • 8 Significance.
Although this is not the same recording-related justification as is usual for the {{Non-free album cover}} template, its significance is described above under "No free equivalent"

Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For an example fair use rationale, see here.
