Image talk:Roentgen-x-ray-von-kollikers-hand.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Coincidence? I think not...

Isn't this picture the same as this other one? And even if not, people wear their wedding rings on their left hands so this picture is reversed.........I'm having a hard time believing Roentgen's wife and Albert wore the exact same wedding rings too. If you flip the first one it compares exactly with the second....Only the brightness of the picture is different. One of this is labelled wrong and I suspect its the one referring to this as being Albert's hand. Pschemp 20:47, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Actually, I think the correct label on this one is Albert; Bertha's x-ray can be seen here in .html and here, as a .pdf. - Nunh-huh 06:28, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

This is beyond ridiculous, PSU no more owns copyright on these images than I do. It doesn't matter a whit what they may claim. They're over 100 years old and never had copyright on them to begin with. --Deglr6328 06:53, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
