Belikin Beer label, mid 1970s, scanned from old label in my own collection. Presumed fair use for illustrating article on Belikin.

This image is of a branded product cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the company responsible of marketing the product in question or the manufacturer which produced either the cover or product itself. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of branded product covers

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, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use in Belikin

Although this image is subject to copyright, I, Infrogmation (talk · contribs), feel that its use in Belikin is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It is being used for informational purposes only;
It is the logo of a company for which no equivalent free alternative exists or could be created without infringing on copyright;
It does not infringe upon the original copyright holder's ability to profit from the media; and
It contributes significantly to the article in which it is used by identifying its subject.
