Άδεια (Επαναχρησιμοποίηση αυτού του αρχείου)	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 domainPublic domainfalsefalse Αυτό το έργο είναι κοινό κτήμα επειδή δημοσιεύτηκε στις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες μεταξύ 1929 και 1977 και χωρίς σημείωση πνευματικών δικαιωμάτων. Εκτός αν ο δημιουργός έχει πεθάνει πριν πολλά χρόνια, αποτελεί πνευματική ιδιοκτησία σε πολλές δικαιοδοσίες όπου δεν ισχύει ο κανόνας της μικρότερης διάρκειας για αμερικανικά έργα, όπως στον Καναδά (50 p.m.a.), Ηπειρωτική Κίνα (50 p.m.a., εκτός Χονγκ Κονγκ και Μακάου), Γερμανία (70 p.m.a.), Μεξικό (100 p.m.a.), Ελβετία (70 p.m.a.), και άλλες χώρες με ξεχωριστές συνθήκες.

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.

All versions of and other unscanned portions of the back of this photo do not display the copyright notice. This photo was released under the Copyright Act of 1909, and, under the 1909 Act, the copyright notice was required and must contain three elements:

1. The symbol © (letter C in a circle); the word “Copyright”; or the abbreviation “Copr.”
2. "The year of first publication. If the work is a derivative work or a compilation incorporating previously published material, the year date of first publication of the derivative work or compilation is sufficient. Examples of derivative works are translations or dramatizations; an example of a compilation is an anthology. The year may be omitted when a pictorial, graphic, or sculptural work, with accompanying textual matter, if any, is reproduced in or on greeting cards, postcards, stationery, jewelry, dolls, toys, or useful articles."

   This was not required for copyrighted photos published before 1978 under Copyright Act 1909, and omission of date may have been irrelevant to such works. Omission of year is permitted for pre-1978 works. Publication with notice (year or no year) secures copyright. Unpublished pre-1978 photos may have been registered and still count as "published", even if unpublished.

3. The name of the copyright owner, an abbreviation by which the name can be recognized, or a generally known alternative designation of owner.
