File:Jailhouse Rock (1957 poster - one-sheet).jpg

Original file(1,910 × 2,934 pixels, file size: 1.61 MB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

Summary

Description
English: Theatrical poster for the American release of the 1957 film Jailhouse Rock, starring Elvis Presley.
Date
Source
English: Scan via Heritage Auctions. Cropped and retouched from original image; see upload history for unretouched original.
Author
English: "Copyright © 1957 Loew's Incorporated". Incorporates a portrait illustration of Elvis by Bradshaw Crandell (1896–1966) and unattributed publicity photography, presumably created by the film's distributor (MGM) or production company (Avon Productions).
Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: The poster included a valid copyright notice, seen at bottom left. However, the copyright for the artwork was not renewed, as was required by American copyright law to extend/maintain protection for works published 1963 or earlier. See the Copyright Catalog (1978 to present). In order to maintain copyright protection, the poster would have had to be renewed 28 years after publication. Because it was not renewed, copyright lapsed at that time. Note that the poster art is a distinct work from the film it represents and had to be renewed separately.
