Photograph of Major-General Frederick Sykes in the initial Royal Air Force uniform design. This uniform was introduced in April 1918 and phased out in August 1919. The source (see below) describes the image as "a First World War portrait" dating it to some time in the period April to November 1918.
The photograph was scanned from Probert, H. (1991). High Commanders of the Royal Air Force. HMSO. ISBN 0-11-772635-4. The entire book, including its photographs, was issued under Crown Copyright. Although copyright for the book is dated at 1991, the Crown Copyright on the photographs starts from the date when they were taken. As this photograph is more than 50 years old it is now in the public domain.
This work is in the public domain worldwide. This is because either:
- It is a photograph created by the United Kingdom Government more than 50 years ago; or
- It is an engraving created by the United Kingdom Government and commercially published more than 50 years ago; or
- It is an artistic work other than a photograph or engraving which was created by the United Kingdom Government more than 50 years ago.
