Costello's

 * Nominator(s): voorts (talk/contributions) 21:34, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

Costello's was a watering hole for journalists, writers, and cartoonists on the east side of Midtown Manhattan. Ernest Hemingway reportedly broke a cane over John O'Hara's head on a bet; the bar's owner responded by displaying the broken cane over the bar. I wish I could have dropped in for a whiskey there. As an aside, I've been having trouble finding images that are either in the PD or that would satisfy WP:NFCCP, particularly photographs of Tim Costello and the bar's exterior and interior. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:34, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

Will leave some comments here after I have a look at the article. -- Vacant 0 (talk &bull; contribs) 12:19, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You've asked for an image, so I did find one but the author and the date of the photo are unknown (we know that it was taken between 1949 and 1973 because of 699). Taken from Classic Chicago magazine.
 * That's a NYT photo, first published on October 3, 1973, and taken by Cosmo-Sileo, which appears to have been a photography studio. I've looked in the copyright catalogue and found just one registration by Cosmo-Sileo., do you think this image is likely PD? voorts (talk/contributions) 17:52, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I can't access that NYT link - is it the case that the image was from Cosmo-Sileo and reproduced with permission, or is it Cosmo-Sileo working for hire? Nikkimaria (talk) 18:02, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * That part is unclear. My guess would be the former, but I can't find very much about the studio. voorts (talk/contributions) 18:05, 21 July 2024 (UTC)


 * That might be a complicating factor - NYT has historically been more protective of copyrights and renewals, so we'd want to be sure the rights weren't assigned to them. Nikkimaria (talk) 18:22, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Sources appear to be reliable. Good job on using the sfnm template.
 * Link Richard Severo in the NYT ref.
 * Done. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:52, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
