This appears to be an unauthorized photograph of a copyrighted sign, and the U.S. does not have FOP for such artwork. --Superm401 - Talk 10:41, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Comment {{PD-US-no-notice}}? Lewis Collard! (lol, internet) 21:31, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. That is a possibility. There are two issues to consider. First, the sign may in fact have a copyright notice, for instance on the back. Second, the sign may not have actually been published. Superm401 - Talk 22:17, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- I think the first scenario is doubtful, but one we might want to consider anyway. The second one is even more doubtful, though; would Pepsi have made an advertisement only to not publish it? And how did the person who owns that advertisement now get hold of it if it was never "published"? Lewis Collard! (lol, internet) 08:31, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I'm a little uncertain of the applicable definition of publish here, but I think if Pepsi made only a single copy it might not qualify. All in all, though, it is most likely PD as you said. Superm401 - Talk 01:32, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
- It's not unpublished. These signs were made for distribution in restaurants all over the country. -Nard the Bard 01:42, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
