Do not remove this tag until the deletion request is closed.

Reason for the deletion request: Questionable PD assertion. Image claims PD as work of U.S. federal government; the only reference to a federal entity, however, is to the Library of Congress. Hosting by LoC does not mean the photo was authored thereby; indeed, it does not appear reasonable to expect an LoC employee took this image in the course of their duties, which would need to be the case to satisfy the PD-Gov claim. LoC serves an archival role and hosts numerous images still under copyright (e.g. w:Image:Old CBOT.jpg, w:Image:Rush Street Bridge traffic.jpg, etc.) Source links only to image itself, not a page on which it is used containing author, licensing, or other information necessary to validate the claim. No author information is provided and, as image is dated 1936, it was not published before 1.1.1923.
