Using source photos in citations?

I want to include images of original documents in the source citations in addition to the text and this profile for Barlow-6859 is my first attempt. It appears to work ok but I wanted ask folks with more experience if I have done it correctly or if there is a better way?

That's the way I do it. I use size=s because it's not usually a readable thumbnail, just a visual cue that there's an image associated with source. There's no official guidance that applies so it's just user preference.

Thank you very much!
I will reach out to the Archive to confirm. However these images were produced and provided to me based on my request to Archive and the original documents themselves should not be under any copyright.
