 * Comment – Reproduced/published zillions of times – so many times it's become a bromide. And BTW it was staged, with an artificial draft blowing up through the grating. Comp. marred by indistinct people behind her. – Sca (talk) 12:32, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * PS: AFAIK, all staff photos were copyrighted by the AP (for which I once worked). – Sca (talk) 12:43, 12 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Support per nom. Iconic. Brandmeistertalk  20:26, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose – Evidently not a free image. – Sca (talk) 15:03, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * How so? Are we both looking at the same picture and license? :) Brandmeistertalk  16:34, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * What license? You mean the one at Commons? Only a fragment of pic. – Sca (talk) 18:01, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * But what about the one that is nominated here? :) I see the public domain, so a free image :) Brandmeistertalk  18:57, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Don't see anything about a "license" there. In any case, IMO it fails Criterion 3 due to the technical defects noted in my first comment above, and to lack of EV in what is a promotional photographic cliché. – Sca (talk) 12:01, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 * On the Commons page of the image, it says that it "is in the public domain in the United States because it was published in the United States between 1926 and 1977, inclusive, without a copyright notice." For our purposes, given that Wikipedia is hosted in the United States, this makes it a free image. Tyrone Madera (talk) 18:52, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
