Image of Georgette Heyer as a young woman, scanned from the inside back cover of the 2006 edition of "The Quiet Gentleman" by Ms. Heyer, published by Harlequin Enterprises-Signature Select. Although presumably covered by copyright, inclusion of this promotional image in the article about Georgette Heyer is fair use to illustrate what she looked like. As she is deceased, a free image is unlikely to be available. Crypticfirefly 04:13, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
