Fair Use Rationale for H. M. Wicks[edit]

1. This image is of a historically significant individual.

2. There are no suitable images of this individual in the public domain.

3. This individual is deceased, making it impossible to create new free images.

4. This image represents a microscopic fraction of the whole from whence it is taken. It is a photograph of Harry Wicks which makes use of perhaps 1/12th of the back panel of the dust jacket of the American edition of a book by him. Its use here in no way impacts the commercial viability of the original work.

5. The publisher of this work, which issued it more than 50 years ago, Challenge Publishers, no longer exists. It is impossible for one to obtain permission from the publisher.

6. This image is a low resolution rendition of the original. It is a 72 dpi scan of a halftone of a photograph. Its use here in no way impacts the commercial viability of the original photograph.

7. This image is being used in conjunction with a non-profit educational encyclopedia article on its subject. The presentation of this material is enriched by the presence of the image.
