[edit] Licensing:

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

  1. This is an image created and uploaded for informational purposes only.
  2. The image is an accurate scan that includes all of the art created for the first magazine spread of the three-part serialized printing of the novella.
  3. 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.
  4. Use of this image in the article Homicide Trinity adds to it significantly because it represents the first appearance of the story and presents its original title, "The Counterfeiter's Knife."
  5. Use of this image in the section of the article on "Counterfeit for Murder" visually references events described in the plot summary.
  6. Use of this image in the article adds to it significantly because it presents the artistry of prominent American illustrator Austin Briggs (1909–1973) and includes the artist credit
  7. Use of this illustration in the article Homicide Trinity adds significantly to the article because it has been regarded as notable by The Society of Illustrators and appears in The Illustrator in America 1860–2000 by Walt Reed (Watson-Guptil Publications 2001, p. 311). ISBN 0823025233
