Description

This image is a faithful digitalization of Herbert Wohlfarth's promissory note to Ernst Lindemann, a historically significant document.

Source

The image has been derived from: http://www.kbismarck.com/sponsorship001.jpg.

Article

German submarine U-556

Portion used

Because the document is historically significant, the entire document is needed to identify the subject, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the document.

Low resolution?

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable for uses that would compete with any commercial purpose of the document.

Purpose of use

Identification and critical commentary in the German submarine U-556 article, a subject of public interest. 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 next to the associated material 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.

Replaceable?

Because the document is itself a non-reproducible historic item, there can be no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.

Other information

Use of the historic document in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. The image meets general Wikipedia content requirements and is encyclopaedic.
