Sports event poster publicizing the Ray Mercer-Larry Holmes professional boxing match on February 7, 1992.
This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters
- to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,
Fair use rationale in Ray Mercer vs. Larry Holmes
[edit | edit source]Though this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- It is a historically significant promotional poster of an extremely notable sports event.
- It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
- The image is only being used for informational purposes.
- Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject(s) of this article and the sporting event promoted in the image
