Copyright not renewed.
  • A search for renewal was done under publications for the years 1975 and 1976. Nothing was located for Radio Mirror. There's no evidence Macfadden continues to claim on this material.
  • With regard to the painting, Skelton said he started working with art as a hobby on a regular basis in 1943. He did not offer any of his works for sale until 1964, when he was convinced by his second wife, Georgia, to show his paintings at the Sands Hotel (where he was also performing at the time) in 1964.
  • To make certain we are not displaying a copyrighted work in the photo of the painting, a second copyright search was done in artwork for the years 1943-1948. covering when Skelton began working in art as a hobby and when the magazine was published. The only information that was found relating to Red Skelton was an illustration of him done by another artist, Sam Berman, for NBC Radio. Berman was hired to create an illustration for each of the radio programs on the NBC Radio Network in 1947; since they were works for hire, the individual copyrights for each work were filed by NBC. NBC renewed the copyrights on some of the illustrations, but not for others, like File:Como stafford supper club 1947.jpg. The illustration of Skelton done by Sam Berman was renewed; there were no listings of any copyrights filed by or for Red or Richard Skelton for any artwork he created during the period of time from 1943-1948.
  • Publication is satisfied because this photo of Skelton in his home posing with one of his paintings, was taken with his consent and with the knowledge that the photo would be published in a magazine that was distributed nationwide. Anyone who bought or read the magazine was able to see the photo of Skelton and his clown painting when the January 1948 issue of the magazine went on sale.
