[edit] Image tagging

This is a copy of a note I left at User talk:Neutrality:

I notice you changed the tag on Image:Prohibition.jpg from "PD-US" to "PD-old-70". The later tag gives the title "Author died more than 70 years ago public domain images". I wonder if that a correct change, as there is no listing of who the photographer is, much less his death date. If you have that info, I think it should be noted on the image page. If we don't have that info, I think the previous tag is the more appropriate one. Cheers, -- Infrogmation 19:12, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I've changed the tag back to PD-US. If there is a reason to use a different tag, please mention it, thanks. -- Infrogmation 18:17, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia, Writing on image

FYI: The text written on the image says "Dumping wine - gov warehouse" and is mirrored. But that doesn't mean the image is presented backwards - the text might have been written on the back of the negative.
