Permission
( Reusing this file)
English: According to the McCarthy scholars Dianne C. Luce and Zachary Turpin, the original article was published in the United States "prior to 1978, ... without any visible or registered copyright notice," and is "therefore in the public domain." See Luce & Turpin (2022), p. 132 (fn. 1). The lack of visible copyright notice on the August 8, 1980 issue of The Lexington Leader can be confirmed by inspecting the scan available via Newspapers.com (see link above); the lack of subsequent registration of the issue within five years of its publication can be confirmed by searching the US Copyright Office's online Copyright Catalog (1978 to present).

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 domain
This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1978 and March 1, 1989 without a copyright notice, and its copyright was not subsequently registered with the U.S. Copyright Office within 5 years. Unless its author has been dead for several years, it is copyrighted in the countries or areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada (50 pma), Mainland China (50 pma, not Hong Kong or Macau), Germany (70 pma), Mexico (100 pma), Switzerland (70 pma), 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.
