Author |
English: Published by Random House. Jacket design by Joseph del Gaudio. According to the 1999 Modern Library edition of the book and M+B Photo, Thompson took the author portrait himself; on the first edition, this appears to be subtly credited by the placement of the initials "HST" on the right jacket flap. |

Permission (Reusing this file) |
English: No permission is required because the dust jacket was first published prior to 1978 without a valid copyright notice. Hell's Angels was first published in book form in 1973. The book itself had a valid notice on the copyright page and its contents were previously published in The Nation, so its contents remain copyrighted. However, the first-edition dust jacket did not carry a separate copyright notice. According to The Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices: Chapter 2200, § 2207.1(C) at p. 15:
Keep in mind that the pre-1989 requirements for copyright notice were highly formalistic and, other than a few enumerated exceptions, required these three elements:

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
