Rationale

This low-resolution scan of an old newsreel poster is being used in reference to the newsreel itself in the context of the Harold McSpaden article, since Harold "Jug" McSpaden in the subject of said newsreel. It cannot be replaced with a free image. Fair use is indicated for a poster image when it is being used in direct regard to the subject of the poster and in a noncommercial venue and for educational purposes. Use of photo here does not detract in any way to commercial value of original poster. J. Van Meter 12:55, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
