"Uglies" Photo

I'm sorry; I'm having trouble understanding your concern about this photo.  In the first place, you have mis-identified it as an "album cover"; it was, instead, a promo photo which was used in several different aspects: print media, posters and flybills, and in this particular usage, on the sleeve of an early 45rpm single.  It appears to comply with the Wikipedia fair use policy, and in fact, I utilized the same fair-use rationale as was used for the photo which illustrates the "Monkees" article, with the added reason that, in this case, a contemporary photo simply would not properly illustrate the article, as some of the original members are deceased.  For those who are interested in the Original Unbelievable Uglies, this is the image they remember and are looking for.
