[edit]

Seems the photos have been published. I doubt there was a copyright notice attached. IMHO {{PD-US-no notice}} applies.

For every one of these photos (with the exception of McBurney.jpg) I own the source material (industrial league basketball programs from the 40s and 50s) and I scoured them for copyright notices and there were none. With McBurney, I believe there is fair-use rationale (long deceased person, doubtful copyright license, no alternative for historically significant person) to keep, I just didn't know how to code it. As an aside, it might be worth looking at copyright instructions and process and streamlining some tags. This is a very complex process (and I'm really not a stupid guy) Rikster2 (talk) 12:27, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, if it is being suggested that {{PD-US-no notice}} applies, I'd like to point out that all but McBurney have that tag already in place. Rikster2 (talk) 00:12, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
IMHO the photograph of McBurney has been published as well, should be tagged wit US-no-notice as well. --Hedwig in Washington (mail?) 02:18, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
