No specific authorisation has been sought from
copyright owners, partly as I believe that all images are out
of copyright, and are provided under fair use guidelines for educational
purposes. If you wish to contradict me on this point, please contact
me. If you wish to use posters for other purposes outside
the fair use agreement, please contact the Imperial
War Museum or The
National Archives (formerly the Public Record Office), who
deal specifically with this issue.
Second World War posters are covered
under the Copyright Act, 1911, unless the artist
retained copyright (as Abram
Games did).
18. Without prejudice to any rights or privileges
of the Crown, where any work has, whether before or after the
commencement of this Act, been prepared or published by or under
direction or control of His Majesty or any Government department,
the copyright in the work shall, subject to any agreement with
the author, belong to His Majesty, and in such case shall continue
for a period of fifty years from the date of the first publication
of the work.
All text and images other than poster images
are copyright Rebecca Lewis.
