Komentarz do licencji:

No permission is required because the photo is in the public domain. Without an original hard copy or full scan, it is impossible to determine whether The Oysterette was published with a valid copyright notice. However, even if it did carry a valid notice, the copyright was not renewed as required to extend the copyright term of US works published prior to 1964. See the online searchable Copyright Catalog (1978 to present). The 1953 edition of The Oysterette would have to have been renewed in its 27th or 28th year, either 1980 or 1981. It was not, so any copyright protection would have expired at that time.
