- File was not created by NEA, but by Boston Early Music Festival. See https://myspace.com/bostonearlymusicfestival/photos for photos from that production and others, none of which are public domain. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:18, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

- File:Jefferson Airplane.jpg (delete | talk | history | logs).
- There may have been no copyright notice in Billboard, but it's the same image used in File:Jeffair.jpg which certainly had a copyright notice. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 09:04, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

- The advertisment clearly does not show a copyright notice, as was normal, so that image in Billboard complies with the pre-1978 no notice licence. While the album cover that used the same photo a part of the design File:Jeffair.jpg is certainly copyright: it is hard to tell which release of the album this image is, but this German pressing does show a copyright notice. However that does not change the fact that this image is free. ww2censor (talk) 11:31, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- By that logic, one could simply crop out the title and border from the album image and declare it public domain. Is that credible? Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 11:34, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- The ad copy says that the album which used the photo for the cover on page 2, Surrealistic Pillow, was "their up-coming album". RCA chose to use the photo for the ad without copyright-protecting the ad. They also selected the photo for the album cover, which was available to the public after the photo was published in Billboard. The trade ad was published first with no copyright notice.

- The Billboard issue the ad was published in was January 7, 1967. The ad copy also says The Airplane began a coast to coast promotion tour at the beginning of January. According to Allmusic, Surrealistic Pillow was released in February 1967. We hope (talk) 14:19, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- Is that really how it works? Would it actually pass muster in court? Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 23:19, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's more or less how it works. You think copyright is confusing now? A lot of US films and posters and whatnot are PD because people made little mistakes like this. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:43, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
