Claimed to be a 1947 creation by someone who died more than 5 years before making it. Sounds unlikely. Besides, copyrighted in the United States unless the author died at least 22 years before creation. Stefan4 (talk) 14:10, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Exactly what is the nature of your complaint? The image is a small, low resolution depiction of the cover of a long defunct Norwegian magazine. The only two elements on the cover are the masthead (which is far older than 1947) and an add for ball-bearings from a Swedish firm. Where do do you see the copyright infrigment?

    • Are you saying that the art on the cover is old? Who made it and when was it first published? I just noticed that the statement on the file information page ("A facisimile of the Norwegian magazine Farmand, 1947 edition") is unclear: is this a facsimile of a 1947 issue ("edition") of the magazine, or is it a 1947 facsimile edition of an older issue? --Stefan4 (talk) 17:02, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Delete The picture is dominated by the SKF logo. As we can see at en:File:SKF.svg the logo is not free. / Achird (talk) 04:20, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • The information on English Wikipedia looks wrong. Lots of logos are listed as unfree there although they are in fact too simple to be copyrightable. The logo is clearly not copyrightable in the United States (cf. the examples at COM:TOO#United States), so the question is only whether it is copyrightable in Sweden. Even if the logo is copyrightable, note that this is a publication from the 1940s (claimed to be from 1947 in the file name but claimed to be from 1949 above). This means that there is a good chance that the logo also was used in 1941, in which case it most likely is {{Anonymous-EU}} if nothing else. The only issue to me is the drawing below the SKF logo. --Stefan4 (talk) 09:28, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Sorry, my mistake. 1947 is correct 1949 was just a typo. The image below the three letter logo is just a technical drawing, so there is no original work intent there. Asav (talk) 14:24, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: Magazine cover, therefore this is a clear copyvio -- just because we can;t see the detail does not allow us to say that this small size is somehow PD when a larger one would not be.      Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward (talk to me) 17:59, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
