I think in the very first instance it is best to use imagery which you have
obtained permission to use. In this case, it's a one-off use, not online,
and depending where you got the image from, a permission fee would possibly
not be expensive.
Disclaimers offer no real legal protection from rights holders who are
intent on pursuing claims for loss of business. Of course, the real danger
occurs when you're publishing online.
All the best
