Summary

Description
English: C. 1910 postcard view of Crawford Nebraska, looking south on Second Street from Main. A number on the back of the postcard reads "11959". It is postmarked July 1912. No author is stated on the image.

The photo was taken at earliest in 1907, the year Kennedy building (the last brick building on the right side of the street) was constructed, and at latest 1912, the year the postcard is postmarked.

This photo depicts a much different Crawford than exists today. The city has transformed from a booming "saloon element" town to quiet, less populous rural community. However, it is notable that all of the two-story brick buildings depicted are still standing, although in varying states of repair.

As the postcard this image was scanned from was obviously published before 1978 in the United States and does not have a copyright notice printed anywhere on it, it is currently in the public domain and is therefore eligible for inclusion on Wikimedia Commons.

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:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
Note: This tag should not be used for sound recordings.PD-1923Public domain in the United States//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Downtown_Crawford,_Nebraska_Postcard_c._1910.jpg

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.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
