ABOUT: I don’t drive. I bike & walk for transportation, & use the camera to get deeper into the neighborhood. My politics ~ I support alternative transportation & livable communities, old & new school feminism, & whatever peaceful way we can manage to help everyone find their way home.

COPYRIGHT
Images found in the Uncivil Times & the Venerable Vintage Press albums are in the public domain, unless heavily altered from the original. Photographs in the Ruby Creek Press album are not in the public domain & are under copyright to InkToPaperPress.com.
Please download public domain images from their source sites, using the links provided for each image.
Uncivil Times & Venerable Vintage Press postcards feature altered, downloaded, or scanned images of work originally created by, for the most part, artists working before or around the turn of the 20th century (the originals were usually created before 1925, year of creation being a deciding factor. But other factors can affect copyright status ~ i.e., government-funded work is often in the public domain).
Rules for use of public domain material can be complicated. The short version from Stanford University libraries: “The term ‘public domain’ refers to creative materials that are not protected by intellectual property laws such as copyright, trademark, or patent laws. The public owns these works, not an individual author or artist. Anyone can use a public domain work without obtaining permission, but no one can ever own it.”
It’s a privilege & a somewhat tricky matter to use someone else’s art to create my own, so whenever possible I’ve included links pointing back to the source of the image or to information pages if the source was not found. Respecting the source & the original artists is a big part of this project.
According to their source institutions, the original pieces are copyright-free, but please confirm the work’s current status for yourself ~ corrections/input welcomed.
