May be restricted.

Access: Permitted; subject to P&P policy on serving originals.

Reproduction (photocopying, hand-held camera copying, photoduplication and other forms of copying allowed by "fair use"): Permitted; subject to P&P policy on copying. This policy prohibits xeroxing of original drawings.

Publication and other forms of distribution: May be restricted. Most of Berryman's cartoons were published in the Washington Star. The "date" in the catalog record is the date Berryman signed the cartoon and is the probably date of publication. If the cartoon was published without copyright registration, or if there was no later copyright renewal, the cartoon can be considered to be in the public domain. Otherwise rights are in the hands of the Washington Post. Patrons can attempt to determine if the cartoon was published in the Washington Star by browsing back issues of the Star (available on microfilm in the Newspapers & Periodicals Reading Room). If the cartoon is found in the Star, patrons can conduct a copyright search. If the cartoon was not published, or if it cannot be determined if it was published, patrons may seek permission to use the image from:
