Fair use rationale

This image is a re-creation of a collage designed by Klaus Voormann for The Beatles Anthology. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

• It illustrates an educational article specifically about the album from which the cover illustration was taken.
• The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic.
• The image is only a small portion of the commercial product.
• It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
• The use of the cover will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original.
• It illustrates the deliberate removal of Pete Best's head on the cover of The Beatles Anthology.

The use of the cover illustration is in good faith, and its inclusion enhances the quality of the article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn.
