Non-free / fair use media rationale for Milan (aka The Leather Boy)
Description	Cover photo of the 45 single for "I'm a Leather Boy"
Source	A blog discussing the artist Milan
Article	Milan (aka The Leather Boy)
Portion used	Front cover image only
Low resolution?	As uploaded from the website
Purpose of use	The article is on this recording artist, and this is the best illustration available.
Replaceable?	Yes
Other information	As might be appreciated from his one-word pseudonym, Milan has throughout his career been reticent to reveal his identity, and many rock music experts maintain that he is anonymous. To my knowledge, no other photographs of Milan exist other than those that have appeared on the one LP and some of the singles that he has released. This 45 single is not in my personal collection either. The image is high-resolution enough so that the MGM Records copyright line can be discerned, if not read.

[edit] Fair use for Milan (aka The Leather Boy)

This image, Leatherboy-45cover-new.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright, I,(Shocking Blue•talk) feel it is covered by the U. S. fair use laws because:

It is used for educational and informational purposes only;
The image adds significantly to the article because it is the most recognizable way to identify the recording artist being described in the article; and,
It has been featured prominently in websites and catalogues by individuals (or companies) seeking to sell or resell the single or to describe their record collection, or who otherwise wish to express their interest in the music by this artist.

[edit] Summary

A 45 cover to illustrate article on Milan (aka the Leather Boy).

[edit] Licensing

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 low-resolution images of such covers

solely to illustrate the audio recording 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. 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.
