Article

Ulster Volunteer Force

Portion used

Just the seated figures are visible

Low resolution?

Yes. The image has no market value as resolution is low; it is also grainy and not very clear.

Purpose of use

To illustrate the article's subject with this historically-significant event. It represents masked UVF members wearing their special uniforms at a press conference which would greatly aid the reader's understanding of the subject

Replaceable?

No. The UVF press conference took place in October 1974, and the political situation in Northern Ireland has since changed considerably.

Other information

The people in the image are all masked, so the image does not violate the personality rights of any individuals. It would not be used for commercial purposes due to the low resolution and grainy nature of said image.
