Image of women playing hockey, Isobel Stanley, daughter of Lord Stanley, is seen wearing white (Source: Proud past, bright future : one hundred years of Canadian women's hockey Brian McFarlane -- Toronto : Stoddart, 1994. -- xvii, 206 p. : ill., ports. ; 20 x 27 cm. -- ISBN 0773728368 -- P. 6 © Public Domain nlc-5953)

This image is in the public domain because its copyright has expired in the United States and those countries with a copyright term of no more than the life of the author plus 100 years.

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

1. it was subject to Crown copyright and was first published more than 50 years ago, or

it was not subject to Crown copyright, and

2. it is a photograph that was created before January 1, 1949, or

3. the creator died more than 50 years ago.

The media description page should identify which reason applies, and should also have a rationale explaining the copyright status of the work in the U.S. Some Canadian photographs created before 1949 may be copyrighted outside of Canada, e.g. the images of Yousuf Karsh.
