This is a public domain image. As an advertisement, it was published in trade magazines and newspapers without an independent copyright notice. Per the following case law, that establishes it as in the public domain within the United States. Copyright in other jurisdictions may vary.

17 U.S.C. § 404(a) specifically excludes "advertisements inserted on behalf of persons other than the owner of copyright in the collective work" from coverage under the collective work's copyright. Federal case law:

:: Canfield v. Ponchatoula Times, 759 F.2d 4930
C.A.5, La., 1985
Where advertisement was inserted on behalf of automobile dealership and its new employee, and no specific copyright notice appeared directly on advertisement itself, newspaper could not protect its asserted copyright in advertisement by relying on general collective work notice of copyright printed on front page of its newspaper under masthead.
:: Moore Pub., Inc. v. Big Sky Marketing, Inc., 756 F.Supp. 1371
D.Idaho, 1990
Copyright notice applicable to real estate advertising magazine, which was a collective work, was not sufficient to protect whatever copyright protection publisher of magazine might enjoy in logos of real estate firms advertising in the magazine, where publisher never placed copyright notices on the separate advertisements.
:: Milton H. Greene Archives, Inc. v. BPI Communications, Inc., 378 F.Supp.2d 1189
C.D. Cal. S.Div., 2005
Copyright protection under the 1909 Copyright Act required copyright notice in the name of the copyright holder, not merely in the name of the publishing newspaper, magazine, or campaign book.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart as well as a detailed definition of "publication" for public art.
