The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that as chair of the Inter-American Commission of Women, Doris Stevens (pictured) presented data on laws affecting women, resulting in the passage of the first international agreement on women's rights?

[edit]

Adam Cuerden you are much better with photo rights than me. What the heck does rights managed mean? I suppose that it probably puts this one out of the question?? [1] but it is a great image. SusunW (talk) 16:57, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, it doesn't actually mean very much at all. If this was published, it has a decent chance of having lost its copyright - copyright renewals tended to be a little spotty. https://www.loc.gov/search/?in=&q=Doris+stevens&new=true&st= Adam Cuerden (talk) 17:06, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know, Adam Cuerden. I looked at all the ones on the LOC site and it looks like they are all WP. But that Edna St. Vincent Millay one is lovely but possibly controlled by her estate? Then I just found this which is her giving "the speech" in 1928 to the Pan American Union. Clearly a US government publication, so where do I find it on the government site because this one is so tiny as to be useless? SusunW (talk) 20:33, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
