It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of works of art

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.

Though this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

This is an image created and uploaded for informational purposes only.
The image is an accurate scan that includes all of the art created for the first magazine spread of the novella, and accurately represents the story's first appearance.
This image is of much lower resolution than the original. It cannot be used for high-resolution printing, and any copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
Use of this image in the article Three for the Chair adds to it significantly because it illustrates the first appearance of the story "A Window for Death."
Use of this image in the article adds to it significantly because it presents the artistry of prominent American illustrator Alex Ross (1909–1990) in the first of only three Nero Wolfe stories illustrated by the artist.
Use of this image in the article is of historic significance because it represents the final appearance of a Rex Stout story in The American Magazine, a publishing institution that printed the first Nero Wolfe story in 1934, and ceased publication only three months after this novella appeared.
The copyright owner's rights to reproduce the image are not limited in any way.
