[edit] Fair use rationale

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Flash Gordon (film)
Description	This image is being used to illustrate the article of the film Flash Gordon (film) and is used for informational or educational purposes only.
Source	Derived from a scan of the poster (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the film company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
Article	Flash Gordon (film)
Portion used	Entire Poster
Low resolution?	Is low and only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the style of artwork used for the article, not enough to be used for piracy.
Purpose of use	Illustrates the article Flash Gordon (film) which provides enough critical commentary for fair use to be applicable.
Replaceable?	No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative of this artwork)
Other information	Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the poster as part of movie catalogs and film reviews, so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves.
