:: If you think that [[Commons:Public art and copyrights in the US]] is wrong, then I suggest that you start a discussion at [[COM:VPC]] about that, since there are lots of deletion discussions all of the time which are based on that page. I am not convinced that you could say that tangible copies have been sold to the public. One copy was sold to the City of Wakefield, but other people were not offered a copy of the work. I'm not sure if the use of a plural form in [[s:United States Code/Title 17/Chapter 1/Section 101]] is relevant, but the last sentence in the definition is certainly relevant: "A public performance or display of a work does not of itself constitute publication."

:: If you visit a monument such as [[w:The Little Mermaid (statue)]] or the [[w:Eiffel Tower]], then you will frequently find sellers around the monument selling 3D miniature copies of the monument. I believe that this is what counts as publication under the Copyright Act of 1976 and that you would have to show that sellers have offered copies of this work in a similar fashion if you wish to claim that {{tl|PD-US-1978-89}} applies to the work. --[[User:Stefan4|Stefan4]] ([[User talk:Stefan4|talk]]) 21:48, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

:::no, PD-US-1978-89, does not apply to published works alone. rather, one could find a published derivative of this work in the newspaper, or dedication program which would qualify as publication. a higher bar than pre-1978, but not impossible.
