Rationale

A picture of the pirate radio ship Ocean 7, taken circa 1967 and used for promotional purposes by the pirate radio station Radio 270. Its original source is believed to be a press package released by Radio 270, the latter now being a long extinct business. Fair use claimed for Radio 270 article :

(1) The use of the image is to stimulate creativity for the enrichment of the general public. It is for a nonprofit, educational purpose. The subject of the articles is the radio station broadcasting from the ship. The image is impossible to recreate because the ship was broken up in 1969.

(2) The image is of a factual and nonfictional nature and it has previously been widely published and circulated

(3) The image is being used for critical purposes

(4) This present use of the image has no impact on the image's marketability or sales value. It is thumbnail size. In the form used here it is extremely low resolution.

Unlikely to be any copyright issue
