Description
English: From the materials for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition of 1909, held in Seattle.

Agricultural Building, Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, Seattle, Washington. Caption says "Portion of the Formal Gardens." Formal garden in foreground. Behind that at right is the low fence around the pool known during the Exposition as Geyser Basin / Arctic Circle (now Drumheller Fountain). In the distance at right is the U.S. Government Building.

The copyright on the image is dated 1908, so this is presumably before the Exposition. This looks like it is at least retouched and may be a good architectural drawing rather than a photo.
Date Edition dated 1909-02-20. Photo copyrighted 1908

(Reusing this file)		 Mechanical scan of a work that is in the public domain because of its age
Other versions Image:A-Y-P Agricultural Building.jpg is just the picture part, digitally photographed from a copy rather than scanned. Image:A-Y-P Agricultural Building - ornament removed.jpg derives from that, and was an effort at clearing away the drawn-in ornamentation around the photo.


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:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
Note: This tag should not be used for sound recordings.PD-1923Public domain in the United States//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Argus_-_A.Y.P._ed._-_Page_11.jpg

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.
