Public domain explanation

• The image was published as an advertisement in the U.S. in 1953. There is no evidence that copyright notice was originally filed on the image, as then required. For instance, this image evidently shows the entire poster and no copyright notice.
• A search of U.S. copyright renewal records both generally and with a specific focus on 1986 and 1987 reveals no evidence that either Screen Classics or any asignee renewed copyrights to this poster or any collection of posters or any collection of material that might encompass this poster as would have been required to maintain copyright protection, if any.
• There is no evidence that any current heir or asignee of Screen Classics claims copyright on the image.
