Non-free fair use media rationale for "The Legend of Xanadu" edit

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

• Article:"The Legend of Xanadu"
• Use=Infobox
• Description=Original cover artwork for the 7" single "The Legend of Xanadu" by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich a chart-topping hit in 1968 in the UK.
• Source=http://home.hetnet.nl/~sixties/GRAPHICS/1968/6803020511.jpg (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by Fontana Records, claimed as fair use regardless.
• Portion=Entire front cover, but does not include back or insides of original artwork
• Resolution=Low Resolution. Is only as much resolution as necessary to identify and show the style of artwork used for the article, not enough to be used for piracy.
• Purpose=Illustrates the appearance of the single's artwork and identifies it by recognized features.
• Replaceability=No free equivalent can equal this image (any would be a derivative of this artwork and subject to copyright).
• other information= Image in this form is already widely distributed to identify the album as part of catalogs and reviews, so we degrade no market value by providing it ourselves.
