[edit] Summary

Scanned image of the British quad poster of Witchfinder General

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters

to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration
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 well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use

This image, WitchfinderPoster.jpg, is being linked here; although the picture is subject to copyright I (Hal Raglan) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws in the Witchfinder General (film) article because:

According to the Wikipedia:Fair use tag for movie posters, "it is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of movie posters, to illustrate the movie in question, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law." The image has been added to the article to assist in critical commentary/discussion of Witchfinder General.--Hal Raglan 02:57, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Additionally:

It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to market or sell the work in any way.
This image is used on numerous websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
No free or public domain images have been located for this item.-Hal Raglan 19:18, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
