  • Comment This is a poor quality reproduction of one half of a stereogram [1] which Rob Oechsle credits to James Ricalton ( quite likely as Underwood & Underwood used many of his photos) Yomanganitalk 11:15, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    • And about the quality - the one in Flickr is of much smaller resolution, and I don't think the quality here is that bad (although not ideal). I couldn't find a better version. And it's of similar quality to this for example. Tomer T (talk) 11:41, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose on the ground that the file is not correctly licensed for use in the United States. If the work in which it was published was published in the United States, which is probable, PD-1923 applies. If not, we're going to need one of those tags for foreign publication that mention whichever circuit 1909 is the cut-off date. (Disregard this oppose if fixed whether or not I've struck it myself.)Grandiose (me, talk, contribs) 08:48, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
