Summary[edit]

I took this picture of a limited edition Monopoly game myself. It is quite uncommon as it was produced on request for Growth Equities Mutual and features properties managed by the company. It is for the article List of licensed Monopoly game boards.

Licensing[edit]

This image is of a board game cover, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the publisher of the board game. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of board game covers to illustrate the board game in question, where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:GEM_Monopoly_box.jpg true

To the uploader: Please add a detailed non-free use rationale for each article the image is used in, which must also declare compliance with the other parts of the non-free content criteria, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For example non-free use rationales, see Wikipedia:Use rationale examples. This tag should only be used for board game covers. Do not use it for other purposes. To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an appropriate rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

Fair use rationale for Rich Uncle Pennybags[edit]

This image is covered by fair use for use in Rich Uncle Pennybags because:

• Parker Brothers (the copyright holder) have released no freely licensed images of the cover so it cannot be replaced by a free image
• It is used only to illustrate the cover of the board game
• It is of low resolution preventing commercial re-use of this image
• This image does not reduce the profits made from the sale of this game, also the game is no longer for sale
