Summary

Description
English: "Style A" theatrical release poster of the 1931 American film Little Caesar.
Date
English: Undated; presumably 1931, the year of the film's release, but there's a substantial chance the poster was published in late 1930 ahead of the film's premiere on January 9, 1931.
Source
English: Scan via Doctor Macro's High-Quality Movie Scans (direct link to original jpg). Retouched to reduce noise and more closely match the brightness/coloration seen on lower-res scans like those at, e.g., MoviePosterShop. See unretouched original below in upload history.
Author
English: Illustrator unknown. Distributed by First National Pictures.
Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: Original copies of this poster may or may not have had a valid copyright notice. Regardless, the copyright for the poster was not renewed, as was required by American copyright law to extend/maintain protection for works published 1963 or earlier. In order to maintain copyright protection, the poster art would have had to be renewed 28 years after publication, in either 1958 or 1959. Note that the poster art is a distinct work from the film it represents and had to be renewed separately.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart and the copyright renewal logs. Note that it may still be copyrighted in jurisdictions that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works (depending on the date of the author's death), such as Canada (70 years p.m.a.), Mainland China (50 years p.m.a., not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany (70 years p.m.a.), Mexico (100 years p.m.a.), Switzerland (70 years p.m.a.), and other countries with individual treaties.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
