Henry Edward Manning Douglas VC

Source

This photo is in the public domain. It was first published in the UK in 1904 in the History of the Victoria Cross by Philip A Wilkins. The work was republished in the US in 1970 and again last year. It therefore complies with UK copyright having been published prior to 1943 and US copyright having been first published in the US prior to 1996. I find the suggestion bizarre that the standard portrait of a VC recipient is not in the public domain. While most if not all the photos have first been published in the press , there have been many VC books, Wilkins (1904), Creagh & Humphris (1921), Roe (1946), The Register of the VC (1981, 1988, 1997) and David Harvey (1999) featuring all available photographs of VC recipients. I have all these books and if there is a bot available I am happy to to verify VC photos. Anthony Staunton (talk) 05:36, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
