  • Partly oppose: The base pictures of these 1928 stamps are older than the stamps and were in public domain before URAA (published before 1925). For Hindenburg it is not that easy to find out the original portrait but it may be this picture from 1916 released to CC-by-sa from the German Bundesarchiv but with not known photographer; This picture shows Hindenburg at the same age and was made 1914 - so I would think the original picture for the stamp also was at around that time. For Ebert the base picture ist this photograph from 1923, also released to CC-by-sa from the German Bundesarchiv. -- Achim Raschka (talk) 11:20, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Behalten: Nach deutschem Recht gemeinfrei, weil vor 1966 veröffentlicht, ohne dass ein Urheber angegeben wurde. Da demnach auch zum URAA-Zeitpunkt (1996) bereits gemeinfrei, auch in den USA nicht geschützt. --Mogelzahn (talk) 20:01, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
