 * The original drawing date of 1942 isn't disputed but there is no evidence of publication at any time or of the image being in the public domain in (presumably) Australia at that time or even now NtheP (talk) 17:28, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
 * It appears that the artist, Geoff Tyson, published (possibly self-published) a small book entitled "Oesapa-besar and other remnants", which according to descriptions, contains his drawings of the camp. It seems highly likely that this comes from that book. According to WorldCat and Google Books, it was published in 1947 in Tasmania. Australian copyright duration is 70 years pma (50 years pma if death before 1955), so it appears this was copyrighted on the URAA restoration date, and it's now copyrighted in the US until 1/1/2043 (95 years from publication).
