Not replaceable; there is no free version of this image. This specimen of the book is a manufacturing oddity and almost certainly unique. |

Though some may argue this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- This is an image created and uploaded for informational purposes only.
- This book was published by an agency of the Federal Government of the United States.
- The agency which published the book was dissolved in 1947.
- The image is an accurate scan and includes all of the art created for the front cover
- This image is of much lower resolution than the original. It cannot be used for high-resolution printing, and any copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
- Use of this image in the Publishing history section of the article Armed Services Editions adds significantly to the article because it visually identifies aspects of an unusual manufacturing process.
- The copyright owner's rights to reproduce the image are not limited in any way.
I also refer to Wikipedia's own policies regarding fair use:
