Licensing
The photo was published simultaneously in many newspapers, some of which had no copyright notice at all (neither for the photo in particular, nor for the newspaper as a whole). For example:
- The Cincinnati Enquirer
- Philadelphia Daily News
- The Austin American
- Warren Times-Mirror and Observer
- Evening Herald and Ashland Daily News
- Shamokin News-Dispatch
- Kingsport News
- The Tipton Daily Tribune
Copyright was therefore forfeited per section 9 of the Copyright Act of 1909, which required that notice of copyright be affixed to every published copy.
The photo's country of origin is unclear, as it was distributed by United Press International and may have been published simultaneously in any number of countries. Per the Berne Convention's definition of "country of origin", the country with the shortest copyright term out of those where the photo was published would be the country of origin. Thus it is likely that the photo will be eligible for transfer to Wikimedia Commons on January 1, 2050, 50 years after the photographer's death, the shortest copyright term allowed among Berne Convention countries.
