Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	For visual identification of the object of the article. The article as a whole is dedicated specifically to a discussion of this work.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	n.a.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	It will only be used in this one article, and this article about the Happy Merchant will only use one drawing of it. This is one of the lowest resolution versions out there.
