Well, here's an interesting copyright question...If this is a 1970's fraud, then the "life + 100 years" provision is clearly not met. Is it therefore not in the public domain? -Rholton 22:42, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This occurred to me, but it's only the 1970's paint job that's recent, and the forger is unlikely to assert his copyright vis-a-vis Wikipedia (if such a sloppy "generic black" paint-over is even copyrightable). At any rate, it's fair use for illustrating the article, at least. Sandstein 22:51, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
