The Wikipedia has been using an image which used to be here but isn't here any longer. Does anyone know where it came from? -- Sy


The iro.umontreal.ca image cites the freemasonry.bcy.ca site as it's source; the specific URL that has the image on it is: http://freemasonry.bcy.ca/brownies/brownie_images/b18.gif ; it's caption (on http://freemasonry.bcy.ca/brownies/The_Band.html ) says: "from the Brownie flag, circa 1980", and links to: http://freemasonry.bcy.ca/brownies/dalton_collection.html#IV14 which seems to part of an inventory of a collection of the artist's works, and says of the "Brownie flag": "Flag, nylon stitched 35" [89 cm] X 73 1/2" [187 cm] [h/w ratio 1:2] green vertical strips, white square centre with 24" [62 cm] round Brownie line art in black. w/ lanyard, toggle. The Flag Shop, Vancouver, BC: CA19724 (c1990)"

This strongly suggests that the image is still in copyright, and the GFDL license is entirely without basis. While I'd be sorry to lose the image, we really can't use it under GFDL; I'm going to remove the GFDL tag. Sigh.

Apparently Palmer Cox flew a "Brownie Flag" over his house, which is still there [1][2]. It seems almost certain that the 1980-90 flag would have been a reproduction of this, and was thus Cox' original artwork. Since Cox died in 1924, this would now be public domain. The en-wiki version of this image was earlier marked as such.

[edit] Licensing

{{GFDL}} (See above for details.)


Public domain This image (or other media file) is in the public domain because its copyright has expired.

This applies to the United States, Canada, the European Union and those countries with a copyright term of life of the author plus 70 years.


Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Côte d'Ivoire has a general copyright term of 99 years and Honduras has 75 years, but they do implement that rule of the shorter term.
