Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description Cover art for The Real Lincoln by Thomas J. DiLorenzo
Author or
copyright owner
Thomas J. DiLorenzo
Source (WP:NFCC#4) The cover art can or could be obtained from the publisher.
Date of publication 2002
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) The Real Lincoln
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) to serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the work in question. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to literary concerns and in turn marketing literature to the public.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
As literary cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the cover of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

Respect for
commercial opportunities
