Permission (Reusing this file) |
English: No permission is required. This image is a modification of the 1st ed. Hell's Angels dust jacket, which is a public domain work (see the "Permission" section at Hell's Angels by Hunter S. Thompson (1967 1st ed jacket back cover).jpg for more information). To the extent that this retouched image is a distinct derivative work, the author makes it available under the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication.
Note: Only the portions of the photograph disclosed on the 1st ed. Hell's Angels dust jacket entered the public domain. There are at least two alternate versions of Thompson's self-portrait, published much later, that presumably remain under copyright. For example, the dust jacket of the 1999 Modern Library edition of Hell's Angels used a higher-quality version of Thompson's photograh with much more detail than the 1967 version. A much larger print of the photograph, typically titled Self-Portrait, on the Road to Tijuana, became available through fine art sellers (see ArtNet). The larger print (27¾ in. × 27¾ in.) has more background detail and portions that are not seen on the Hell's Angels back-cover version, which is tightly cropped around Thompson's head and has a "blank" solid-color background. |
