[edit] Licensing

This image is in the public domain in the United States. In most cases, this means that it was first published in the United States prior to January 1, 1923 (see the talk page for more cases). Other jurisdictions may have other rules, and this image might not be in the public domain outside the United States. See Wikipedia:Public domain and Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details.

[edit] IMPORTANT NOTICE

Frankly, I need some legal advice here. This photo was uploaded as part of Chick Bowen's bad book cover project to replace fair-use images of book covers with free-use images. However, I don't know that a recent photograph of an old book cover really qualifies for free use. The book cover, of course, is out of copyright, but the photograph itself - which is much more recent - may not be. If that is the case, then I claim fair-use of the image under the Wikipedia book-cover exception. My rationale:

This image is used solely in the article Washington Square in accordance with the fair-use licensing statement. The article discusses the book whose cover is shown in the image. Casey Abell 14:53, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

To expand the fair use rationale for this book cover image in line with the suggested guidelines:

The image is of low resolution and completely unsuitable for commercial copying or any other commercial use.
The edition of the book in the image is long out of print, and the image can have no adverse commercial impact on its sale.
The image provides no text of the book, only basic title and author information.
The image is used only to furnish a tangible idea of the book under discussion, and does not violate any rights of the author's estate or the publisher.
