  • It doesn't matter what the source is (ebay, a magazine, a blog, etc.). Publicity photos circulated without a copyright notice, which were common at the time [1], are in public domain. Everything about this photo says it falls in that category. Two FP examples: [2], [3]. Bammesk (talk) 15:59, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support The original Ebay item is in the file history and clearly doesn't display a copyright notice. Per my understanding, works published without a notice between 1923 and 1977 automatically ended up in the public domain. I almost opposed the image when I noticed the original was a lower resolution image (and that the image looked a little fuzzy), but on closer inspection of the file history, it does look like a genuine higher resolution version was uploaded. —CodeHydro 15:09, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – I am not familiar with all the details, but for promotional prints like this, I think something is needed to establish that it was circulated without a copyright notice and also to establish the date of publication. Placing an inquiry at Commons:Village pump/Copyright can clear the copyright status. Bammesk (talk) 17:16, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
