It is believed that the use of a picture

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

This is an image created and uploaded for informational purposes only.
The image is a composite of five photographs that detail the Too Many Cooks recipe box, a scarce promotional item described in the section of the article titled "The American Magazine and the Cooks Tour."
This image is of low resolution.
Use of this art in the article Too Many Cooks adds to it significantly because it depicts a rarely seen limited-edition item issued in 1938 to promote the article's subject, the novel Too Many Cooks. "An item that is almost as desirable as the first edition of the book, and even scarcer, is the promotional box of recipes produced by The American Magazine (Otto Penzler, Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe Part I: A Descriptive Bibliography and Price Guide, 2001).
Use of this art in the article Too Many Cooks adds to it significantly because it depicts the physical application of the art used as a pictorial wrapper on the recipe box. The illustration by Vladimir Bobri, also referenced in the article Too Many Cooks, appeared in May 1938 as the lead illustration in the six-part series.
