Summary
| Media data and Non-free use rationale | |
|---|---|
| Description | Yankee Network publicity photo of John Shepard III, which was used in press releases and in Boston newspapers during the mid-1930s. |
| Author or copyright owner |
unknown photographer at Yankee Network |
| Source (WP:NFCC#4) | Original publication: 1936 publicity photo, given out to Boston newspapers Immediate source: my personal collection |
| Date of publication | 1936 |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | John Shepard III |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of his/her biographical article |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
There are few if any surviving images of John Shepard III. He died in 1950, has no living relatives, and his network went defunct in 1967. No-one knows where the files from the Yankee Network ended up, assuming anyone preserved them. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | There are few if any surviving photos of John Shepard III, and I am pleased I found this one at a flea market sale of old photos. This image would be the only photo in a long article about his life and career. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
See above. (He is long deceased, with no living relatives and none of his personal files seem to have survived.) I have already used this image in one of my books and I encountered no problems doing so. |
| Other information | The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1950 It will be very helpful to the article about broadcast pioneer John Shepard III to have a photo of him included. |
