[edit] Fair use in California Zephyr

Non-free / fair use media rationale for California Zephyr
Description	The cover of a pre-inaugural brochure for the California Zephyr passenger train. Printer's bug indicates either a February or May 1949 printing. A cutaway view of the train's famed "Vista Domes" dominates the scene.

Article	California Zephyr
Portion used	The entire page is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?	The image is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use	The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing California Zephyr, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the reader they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?	Because this is no longer in print there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
