Image: Woman of the Year poster
Description: Original poster for the 1942 film Woman of the Year Public domain explanation If one views the whole poster, there does not appear to be a copyright notice included on it, as then required for protection. If there is any chance that the poster was copyrighted, under the terms of the 1909 Copyright Act (which was law until 1978) it would have had to be renewed 28 years after publication, otherwise it entered the public domain. A search for copyright renewal records of 1970 ([1],[2]) reveal no trace that this occurred.
