Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Collyer brothers
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)	Person is deceased, little photographic record exists of him (he was a recluse), thus it is extremely unlikely that a free use image will ever be obtained of this person, including a mug shot.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Image will only be used to illustrate the Wikipedia article on him and his brother, and will not be allowed to illustrate articles on related subjects (such as hoarders, or NYC residents lists, etc)
