This is a publicity photo taken to promote a film actor. As stated by film production expert Eve Light Honthaner in The Complete Film Production Handbook (Focal Press, 2001, p. 211.):
Nancy Wolff includes a similar explanation in The Professional Photographer's Legal Handbook (Allworth Communications, 2007, p. 55.):
Film industry author Gerald Mast, in Film Study and the Copyright Law (1989) p. 87, writes:
|
- Note that the uploaded photo is larger and of higher quality than the cropped version published in the newspaper (see original upload).
- No copyright notice is present. A search for copyright renewals by Warner Bros. found none for photographs in the years 1967 and 1968.
