→Official images: created circa 1982, so author's life+80 can't work
Do you know, or is there any way to find out, the licensing of these images: [http://governor.arkansas.gov/images/uploads/Governor_Hutchinson_Official_medium.jpg][http://www.encyclopediaofarkansas.net/encyclopedia/media-detail.aspx?mediaID=6925][http://www.encyclopediaofarkansas.net/encyclopedia/media-detail.aspx?mediaID=171]? --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 12:12, 29 October 2016 (EDT)

:Well, images created by the U.S. government are in the public Domain. Since the first image is from the governor's office, it should be fine to use. The other two are a little less clear. The second image is provided "Courtesy of the Museum of American History, Cabot Public Schools." Since provided by a public school, it's possible (but not certain) that it might be usable as well. For that one, I'd want a second opinion. Perhaps due to it's age, it is not in the Public Domain, but I don't know how old it is. I believe it must be 80 years after the creator's death for this to apply. The third image is provided "Courtesy of the Arkansas Secretary of State's Office" so that's clearly a government work, and is in the Public Domain. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 12:34, 29 October 2016 (EDT)
