Summary[edit]

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free film poster – true for Mother India
Description	This is a poster for Mother India. The poster art copyright is believed to belong to the distributor of the film, Mehboob Productions, the publisher, Film Center, or the graphic artist.
Source	[1]
Article	Mother India
Portion used	The entire poster: because the image is poster art, a form of product packaging or service marketing, the entire image is needed to identify the product or service, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.
Low resolution?	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original poster. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as counterfeit artwork, pirate versions or for uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.
Purpose of use	Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work, product or service for which it serves as poster art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work, product or service and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the creator providing graphic design services, and in turn the marketing of the promoted item.
Replaceable?	As film poster art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the same artwork or poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Other information	The poster is out of copyright in India, but is still copyrighted in the United States. See this deletion request on Wikimedia Commons for more information.

Licensing[edit]

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters

to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

This Indian work is in the public domain in India because its copyright has expired for one of the following reasons:

In case of a photograph, work of cinema, sound recording, anonymous work, posthumous work, governmental work, or copyright owned by a corporation, it was published more than 60 years ago (that is before 1 January 1964), or
In case of an artistic work, the creator died more than 60 years ago (that is before 1 January 1964), or
In case of the text of laws, judicial opinions, and other government reports, these are free from copyright.

This file may not be in the public domain outside India. The creator and year of publication are essential information and must be provided. See Wikipedia:Public domain and Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details.

This work is not in the public domain in the United States because its copyright in the U.S. was restored by the URAA as it was still copyrighted in its source country on the URAA date (January 1, 1996 in most cases). It is therefore still copyrighted in the U.S. until 95 years after the year it was initially published (or until 2047 in some circumstances).
