Non free, fair use rationale for William Denny and Brothers edit

Although this image is subject to copyright, I, User:Sue Wallace believe it's use here constitutes fair-use because:

1. The company logo is a low resolution depiction of the official logo of a now defunct British limited company. which is being used in an article on Wikipedia that is created for the discussion about the company and its history and discusses the story behind this flag/emblem.
2. The image is only being used in the above-mentioned article.
3. The image is low-resolution.
4. The image is not intended to imply any form of ownership of the logo.
5. The logo is possibly not subject to copyright, since the company no longer exists (since 1963).
6. The low-resolution image is not suitable for piracy.
7. The logo is being used to represent the image of the historically notable company to increase reader's understanding for critical and educational reasons.
