Title
John Doe & Richd. Roe. Brothers in Law.
Description
English: John and Richard Doe, left and right respectively, are dressed in scraggy and unkept attire. John Doe is seen with his arms crossed, with a disgruntled expression on his face, whilst Richard Doe has his hands in his pockets, with a rather forlorn profile. Both wear black hats and coats, with legal papers stuffed into their pockets. Richard Doe looks particularly downtrodden due to visible signs of wear and tear (holes) in his jacket, and stands with the left side of his body facing the viewer.


November 6th 1796.

[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:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.

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.
