| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | This will illustrate the first sale of the Cleveland Browns as part of an article about the team's history. The article would suffer significantly without any illustration showing the dress and physical characteristics of the people involved in the ownership of the organization. | ||

Use of this illustration for non-commercial purposes is explicitly allowed by the Cleveland Memory Project's copyright terms. Other illustrations from the same era of the same people do not contain the same clear copyright provisions and are of uncertain provenance. A free version is unlikely to exist and cannot be created, as the principal actors in it are no longer alive. | ||
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The file is for use on the History of the Cleveland Browns page, and for pages for which its use is explicitly and individually justified as fair use. The image is not a complete reproduction of the original in that it is of low resolution suitable for presentation on the Web but for little else. | ||
