I do not know why but that is exactly what they did with images on the covers of ''An Eloquence of Time and Space''. They obtained a permission for K-9 for the back cover but did not obtain a permission (according to the book itself) for the TARDIS on the front cover. Thus, the strategy of obtaining licensing from some rights holders but not others is not a hypothetical anymore. Arcbeatle Press has employed this strategy in the past. I am sure the OP would soon explain how exactly it squares with the copyright law, after which we would be able to project his explanation to the stories at hand. | I do not know why but that is exactly what they did with images on the covers of ''An Eloquence of Time and Space''.
