Henrique Galvão is mentionned as an author on the map. He died in 1970, but I'm not really sure it's the same guy. If it's not him, 1921 is not early enough a creation date to justify a PD status by itself. Eusebius (talk) 13:55, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is the same Henrique Galvão. This map is from the mid 1930's according to the copy in the Portuguese National Library. There the reference to the map is given as:

The Portuguese National Library also provides what they call a "Public copy", of which this image seems to be an exact copy, stating:
  • Generally, public copies are from works that are in the pubic domain already, meaning that they are no longer copyright protected or are orphan works for which the National Library of Portugal (NLP) could not find, after reasonable research, any right holders. Should you have any information that may help clarifying such cases, please contact bnd@bnportugal.pt.
  • However, the digital images are the property pf the National Library of Portugal and may be used freely for private or educational uses only. Using the images for ther purposes requires prior authorization from the NLP, notably for any publishing or distribution purposes, for free or subject to payment.
  • Permitted usage does not include any commercial exploitation of the images, which is subject to prior authorization by the NLP. Authorization requests should be addressed to reproducoes@bnportugal.pt.
Does all of this help in any way? I would be a pity to lose this map... Cheers! The Ogre (talk) 15:31, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Im sorry, my source (friend) say it author dead 70 years. My stake! --Fredy.00 (talk) 15:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC) (uploader)[reply]
  •  Delete Apparently the NLP themselves haven't done anything to find the copyright holder. If Henrique Galvão is the author as stated, copyright will expire only in 2041, unless the original publication of the map is covered by some copyright exception. --Eusebius (talk) 16:45, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted. Copyright status unsure - most probably not free. |EPO| da: 17:12, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
