Summary

http://www.seamusonline.org/max.html It is a historically significant photo of a famous individual.

It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)

The photo is only being used for informational purposes.

Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject of this article involved in a historic new invention. Picture cannot be created because it shows Max Mathews playing an electric violin of his own invention. Picture is historic because it depicts Max Mathews, a pioneer of digital music, in an early example of sound sampling. This is a historic moment that cannot be replicated or repeated

The photo was part of a press release, widely circulated in the public domain through news articles appearing in national newspapers. Dr.K. 08:10, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
