English: John Motz in his sheriff uniform. Motz became Waterloo County sheriff in 1899 and died 29 October 1911. This image cannot be more narrowly dated than that.
Earliest evidence of publication is in Uttley, William V. (1975) A History of Kitchener, Ontario, Waterloo: Wilfrid Laurier University Press, p. 182 ISBN: 0-88920-024-6. No copyright renewal or notice provided. Book not published in the United States.
Motz died 29 October 1911, so this image was PD in Canada in 1986 at the latest (1911 + 75 years), making this image PD in Canada on the URAA date (1 January 1996).
