| Permission (Reusing this file) |
English: No permission is required because the portrait was published in the U.S. prior to 1964 and copyright was not renewed. Whether it was printed in the Louisville Male High School yearbook or The Spectator, there are no matching renewals in the Copyright Catalog (1978–present). As a result, the copyright expired and the photograph entered the public domain on January 1, 1984. The reproduction in Outlaw Journalist is not subject to copyright because it is a photocopy of the underlying public domain work. |
Licensing
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  |
