Summary

Description
English: Promo still for the 1957 film Pal Joey, showing Frank Sinatra standing and glancing at the camera over his right shoulder. According to journalist and biographer Lew Irwin, this photo captured "the pose for which Sinatra is perhaps best remembered—the rakishly tilted head, the raincoat over his shoulder, the famous grin." (See p. 88 of Irwin's 1997 book Sinatra: A Life Remembered.)

English: "Copyright © 1957 Columbia Pictures Corp." Photographer unknown.
Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: As originally distributed, the photo included a valid copyright notice on its frontside in the bottom margin. However, the copyright for the photograph was not renewed, as was required by American copyright law to extend/maintain protection for works published 1963 or earlier. See the Copyright Catalog (1978 to present). In order to maintain copyright protection, the poster would have had to be renewed 28 years after publication. Because it was not renewed, copyright lapsed at that time. Note that the photo is a distinct work from the film it promoted and had to be renewed separately.

Licensing

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 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.

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.
