First, the photo is a mechanical scan/photocopy of the original poster and does not qualify for independent copyright protection.
Second, the poster was first published prior to 1978 without a valid copyright notice. It carried a defective notice that omits the year: "Copyright - WarnerBros. Pictures Inc" [sic]. While the mashing together of "Warner" and "Bros" is excusable, the omission of a year of publication is not. Keep in mind that the pre-1989 requirements for copyright notice were highly formalistic and, other than a few enumerated exceptions, required these three elements:
"The name of the copyright owner, or an abbreviation by which the name can be recognized, or a generally known alternative designation of the owner."
If just one of these elements is omitted, the work is deemed to be published without notice and is not eligible for copyright protection. Even if the notice were somehow deemed sufficient, the poster art was not renewed as required by American copyright law to extend/maintain protection for works published 1963 or earlier. In order to maintain copyright protection, the poster would have had to be renewed 28 years after publication, in either 1960 or 1961 (see the sections for "Artwork: Original registrations and renewals" and refer to the links to search the copyright catalogs for those years). Because it was not renewed, copyright lapsed at that time. Note that the poster art is a distinct work from the film it represents and had to be renewed separately.
Conditions d’utilisation
Ceci est une reproduction photographique fidèle d'une œuvre d'art originale en deux dimensions. L'œuvre d'art elle-même est dans le domaine public pour la raison suivante :
Public domainPublic domainfalsefalse
This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1977, inclusive, with a defective copyright notice (copyright notice information) containing at least one of the following defects:
Notice is dated more than one year later than the actual date of first publication;
Notice does not include a named claimant or does not name the actual copyright holder;
Notice is illegible or concealed from view;
It is a printed literary, musical, or dramatic work that does not include the year.
A defective notice does not invalidate copyright in cases where the error is immaterial and would not mislead an infringer, such as an abbreviated name. Additionally, foreign works created outside the US are subject to copyright restoration even with a defective notice. It is not in the public domain in the countries or areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada, mainland China (not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany, Mexico, Switzerland, and other countries with individual treaties.
La position officielle de la Fondation Wikimedia est que « les représentations fidèles des œuvres d'art du domaine public en deux dimensions sont dans le domaine public et les exigences contraires sont une attaque contre le concept même de domaine public ». Pour plus de détails, voir Commons:Quand utiliser le bandeau PD-Art. Cette reproduction photographique est donc également considérée comme étant élevée dans le domaine public.
Merci de noter qu'en fonction des lois locales, la réutilisation de ce contenu peut être interdite ou restreinte dans votre juridiction. Voyez Commons:Reuse of PD-Art photographs.

Cette œuvre est dans le domaine public car elle a été publiée aux États-Unis entre 1929 et 1963 et, qu'il y eut ou non un avis de copyright, ce copyright n'a pas été renouvelé. À moins que son auteur ne soit décédé depuis suffisamment longtemps, il reste "copyrighté" dans les pays ou lieux qui n'appliquent pas la règle du terme le plus court pour les œuvres américaines, comme l'Allemagne (70 ans), le Canada (70 ans), la Chine continentale (50 ans ; sauf pour Hong-Kong et Macao), le Mexique (100 ans), la Suisse (70 ans), et d'autres pays avec des traités individuels.
