The photo itself is public domain - all Shorpy does is download public domain images from the Library of Congress, reduce their size and upload them back to their site. Any claim they have to copyright is highly questionable. I would respect them more if the photo was in their private collection and they were publishing scans of those images. In that case they could claim copyright over THEIR SCAN, but still not of the original imageMeanwhile. If I like an image I just go to the LOC and download the high res version myself without the Shorpy watermark |
