User:Jeff G., can we use this image? And under what license? Thank you! Drmies (talk) 16:07, 3 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Drmies: Hi. What can you tell us about the name and lifetime of the photographer and the dates and countries of photography and publication? Also, please see C:COM:HIRTLE.   — Jeff G. ツ 00:54, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Jeff, what is on that page is all I know--which means, if I read that Hirtle page correctly, that it's 120 years, right? Drmies (talk) 01:11, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Drmies: Right, only 30 years to go. :)   — Jeff G. ツ 01:21, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Image of George Hughes alive edit

The image from the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, University of Texas at Austin, can be seen in this magazine article. It isn't out of copyright, and the Wikipedia:Fair use justification, that we cannot possibly have a non-free image, seems weak to me unless we can actually talk about what is photographed specifically, otherwise the article stands well without it.
