Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
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.
