Permission
(Reusing this file)
English: No permission is required; the image is in the public domain because no part of it contains any element that meets the threshold of originality under US copyright law. An image of the flat top side of a VHS tape contains no original authorship. The image is equivalent to a scan, photocopy, or mere mechanical reproduction of the underlying object and lacks any creative element that might give rise to copyright. The label on the tape only contains text elements: the film's title, the name of the publisher/distributor, the owner of the film's copyright, and a generic warning against copyright violation. Note that the film itself and other closely related works, such as the illustrated cover of this same VHS tape, are copyrighted. See also: w:Commons:Threshold of originality#Partial copying or cropping of copyrighted works.
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This work is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
