Summary[edit]

Description
English: Silver gelatin publicity photo of Jerry Lewis circa 1957.
Date
English: An autographed copy of the portrait (see below) was dated June 1957, so the photograph was taken no later than that month. The film The Delicate Delinquent—Lewis's first production credit, first screenwriting credit, and first solo film (without Dean Martin)—premiered the same month.
Source
English: Scan via Bonhams. Retouched by uploader to remove Lewis's autograph, remove minor damage, convert to black and white rather than faded orange, and other minor changes.
Author
English: According to Bonhams, the reverse side was stamped with "Paramount Photo by Bud Fraker". According to mptvimages.com, Fraker was born in 1916, died in 2002, and worked as Director of Still Photography at Columbia and later Paramount.
Permission
(Reusing this file)
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 work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art. Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.

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.
