A Wee "Scrap of Paper" is Britain's Bond

 * Reason:We lacked a Scottish recruitment poster for WWI. Now we have it, and it's a fine illustration. I suspect the cartoon was borrowed for the poster, given that, unusually, the Parliamentary Recruiting Committee very carefully notes Wood as the copyright holder, hence why it's not uploaded as Crown Copyright on commons.
 * Articles in which this image appears:History of the United Kingdom during World War I, Recruitment to the British Army during the First World War, Treaty of London (1839), Lawson Wood (Admittedly, all just added, but I doubt they'll be removed.)
 * FP category for this image:Featured pictures/History/WWI
 * Creator:Lawson Wood, restored by Adam Cuerden

 * Support - Looks good to me. I might have to get you to take a look at the Football Battalion poster. Miyagawa (talk) 20:00, 7 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh, hey, the NZ library (or was it LoC? I looked through both soon after each other) has a large copy of that one. We don't have articles on a lot of battalions, so I hadn't added it to my list. Adam Cuerden (talk) 20:27, 7 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for sending that link over. Downloading it now. Going to take a look myself since you've inspired me! Miyagawa (talk) 20:40, 7 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. Adam Cuerden Can you be kind enough to explain something to me? Kinda offtopic here I think but somewhat connected as well. The copyright notice on the wikipedia page of this file says that it will copyrighted in the source country till 2028 but the link given on the "source" takes me here, and it is written that there are no copyright restrictions on this poster. Can you explain a bit please? Kinda confused. Feel free to use my talkpage if this appears offtopic here. Regards FreeatlastChitchat (talk) 04:32, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Precaution, perhaps in excess: Unlike most Parliamentary Recruiting Committee posters, this poster explicitly gives copyright to someone other than them. As such, Crown Copyright may not apply, possibly due to Lawson Wood's work being pre-published and used with permission - but it may just be the publisher instead showing excessive grabbiness for copyright they didn't actually have. In any case, just enough ambiguity that I'd prefer to be careful. It's definitely and unambiguously out of copyright in America. Adam Cuerden (talk) 08:50, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I've expanded the explanation on the file page. Adam Cuerden (talk) 09:09, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
