[edit] Summary

This is a low-resolution scanned image of the cover of the 1885 hardcover edition of Tom Brown at Oxford by Thomas Hughes, illustrated by Sydney Prior Hall (1842-1922), and published by Macmillan and Company, New York. Since the illustrator did not die over 100 years ago, the image may still be subject to copyright. Sanjay Tiwari 14:58, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair Use Rationale

Although this image, Tombrown_atoxford_cover.jpg, may be subject to copyright, I (Sanjay Tiwari 14:58, 24 September 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of a book cover;
2. the author of the book, Thomas Hughes (1822-1896), died over 100 years ago
3. the book is out of print
4. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the cover art in any way;
5. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the cover artwork;
6. the image on the cover is significant because it could have been made by a famous artist, Sydney Prior Hall (1842-1922), who was the illustrator of the book

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers to illustrate an article discussing the book in question 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, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
