[edit] Licensing

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

  2. The image is an accurate scan that includes all of the art created for the first magazine spread of the novella, and accurately represents the story's first appearance.
  3. This image is of much lower resolution than the original. It cannot be used for high-resolution printing, and any copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
  4. Use of this image in the article Three for the Chair adds to it significantly because it illustrates the first appearance of the story "Too Many Detectives."
  5. Use of this image in the article adds to it significantly because it presents the artistry of prominent American illustrator Alex Ross (1909–1990) in the second of only three Nero Wolfe stories illustrated by the artist.
  6. Use of this image in the article is of historic significance because it represents the first appearance of a Rex Stout story in Collier's magazine
