Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: The poster included a valid copyright notice, seen at the bottom left: "© 1940 by the United Artists Corporation". However, the copyright for the artwork was not renewed in 1967 or 1968 (see the sections for "Artwork: Original registrations and renewals" and refer to the links). Copyright lapsed at that time. Note that the poster is a distinct work from the film and had to be renewed separately.


This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications made by Blz 2049.

Licensing

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art 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 1929 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart and the copyright renewal logs.
