Overall: All points check out, except that the licensing of the image seems to refer only to the stamp, no claim is made that the Christies catalogue cover of 1990 (and trade mark) are out of copyright. Philafrenzy, do you want to make a case for the image? Moonraker (talk) 16:53, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. There's a "PD-ineligible" notice for the text and I think the logo is de minimis in the context of the overall image. I have ordered the catalogue and when it arrives, or indeed before, I may have alternative hooks and images. Philafrenzy (talk) 18:17, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
