English: A tuned RF amplifier module for a radio transmitter, from an advertisement in a 1938 radio magazine. This consists of two power triode tubes and a tank circuit consisting of a high Q coil (top) and a variable capacitor (center). The promotional copy said it was usable up to 27 MHz.
This image is from an advertisement without a copyright notice published in a 1938 magazine. In the United States, advertisements published in collective works (magazines and newspapers) are not covered by the copyright notice for the entire collective work. (See U.S. Copyright Office Circular 3, "Copyright Notice", page 3, "Contributions to Collective Works".) Since the advertisement was published before 1978 without a copyright notice, it falls into the public domain.
Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (50 p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 p.m.a.), Mexico (100 p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.
