[edit] Fair use for Spyker

The image Spykerstamp.jpg is being linked here; though probably the picture is originally copyright, I (MH 15:36, 2004 Jun 11 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:

it is a low resolution scan of stamps from my personal collection;
it does not limit the copyright owners' rights to sell stamps in any way;
copies could not be used to make illegal copies;
it is a signifcant scene of historically famous automobile brand;
it is of lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
the scan is only being used for non profit and informational purposes.
its inclusion in the article adds to the article because it shows the subject of this article and the historic relevance to the general public.

This image is of a postage stamp. The copyright for it may be owned by the issuing authority, and there may be other restrictions on its reproduction. It is believed that the use of postage stamps

to illustrate the stamp in question (as opposed to things appearing in the stamp's design)
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, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
