Summary[edit]

| Description | John "Dropkick" Murphy executing a dropkick in the wrestling ring, 1939 |
|---|---|
| Author or copyright owner |
Photographer name partially obscured, probably "Grant Sainsbury" (but not the 21st century fashion photographer; possibly his father or grandfather) |
| Source (WP:NFCC#4) | Original publication: Unknown newspaper Immediate source: http://www.xefer.com/2009/03/bellowsfarm |
| Date of publication | On or about September 22, 1939 |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | John Murphy (sanatorium operator) |
| 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) |
Murphy's been dead 35 years, hadn't been in action for decades before that, and is an extremely obscure subject, so it's not likely that a free alternative will surface at this point. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | It's only for the one article, about the subject. It's low-quality and low-resolution. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
It's a poor-quality scan of a grainy newspaper photo. It's not very suitable for publication or other use. FWIW the photo was taken 75 years ago so the photographer's probably dead. |
| Other information | The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1977 The person's name is Dropkick Murphy, and the photo shows him dropkicking, so it illustrates the origin and meaning of his name, which is relevant IMO. |
