Other information


The author of the image created the rendition for police use into the public domain, for free press circulation, in 1985, in active efforts to generate public interest and "tips" in (continuing to this day) efforts to identify the vehicle and locate the still-missing child whom the Wiki. article this file usage is intended upon.

(NFCC1): This image has no free equivalent; meeting Wikipedia's guidelines

(NFCC4): This image (and very similar derivatives by the same police artist) has already been widely distributed in the media via various methods since Feb. '85 and, in doing so, this image has been displayed in a better visual quality

Precise name I have given to the file - plus the nature of the content - make ambiguous usage of the image extremely unlikely (NFCC9)
