Rationale of fair use[edit]

Though this image, CosmicChristmas-Nelvana-1977.png, is protected by U.S and Canadian copyright, I (Slgr@ndson (page - messages - contribs)) deem it fair use in the Nelvana article for the following reasons:

1. It is of a lower resolution than the original content, and copies made from this will be of a much more inderior quality.
2. No free use images are available for this special.
3. It is a picture of a scene from one of Nelvana's earliest works.
4. It is also used to illustrate a historical part of the studio's legacy.
5. The screenshot is used for informative purposes only, and will not detract from Nelvana's efforts to distribute the special in any way.
