Permission (Reusing this file) |
English: No permission is required because the photograph is in the public domain. It was first published in the United States prior to 1978 on a dust jacket that did not carry a valid copyright notice. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was first published in book form in July 1972. The first-edition dust jacket did not carry a separate copyright notice. According to The Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices: Chapter 2200, § 2207.1(C) at p. 15:
The pre-1989 requirements for a valid copyright notice were highly formalistic and required all three of the following elements:
If just one of these elements is omitted, the work is deemed to be published without notice and is not eligible for copyright protection. Neither the year "1972" nor a copyright symbol (or any acceptable variant) appear anywhere on the dust jacket. The contents of the novel remain copyrighted: they were previously published with a copyright notice, in issues of Rolling Stone, and the hardcover book itself carried a copyright notice. The illustration on the front cover was also previously published in Rolling Stone, so it remains copyrighted as well despite the lack of notice on the dust jacket. However, the photograph of Thompson and Acosta had not been previously published; as a result, it entered the public domain with its publication on the dust jacket. Only the portion of the photo published on the dust jacket is public domain, and the other portions of the full photo presumably remain under copyright. |

Licensing[edit]
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:
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. |
