Robert_Petway.jpg‎ (320 × 400 pixels, file size: 100 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

According to the liner notes of "Mississippi Blues Vol. 3" (Document Records Cat#DOCD-5671), this photo was taken as a publicity photo. According to the allmusic.com biography, written by Stacia Proefrock, this photo is the only known photo of Robert Petway. Since these are both credible sources, and since no other photo could be found, this photo should fall under either "promotional" or "historical" or both. This copy of the image comes from http://www.wirz.de/music/petwafrm.htm. The site credits http://www.thedevilsmusic.net/lyrics/robert_petway.html as its source for the image and Stefan Wirz as the processor.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.

Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale should be provided proving that the image provides information beyond simple identification or showing that this image is difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent. Commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights.

to illustrate the event or historically notable person(s) in question where:
The image depicts a non-reproducible historic event or historically notable person(s), and no free alternative exists or can be created, and
The image is low resolution and of no larger and of no higher quality than is necessary for the illustration of an article, and the use of the image on Wikipedia is not expected to decrease the value of the copyright,
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. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.
