:i didn't see any evidence for the 1920's. appears to be same date as [[File:Henry Rider Haggard 02.jpg|50px]], but these are all guesses. are you seriously arguing that it was taken in 1924 or 1925? tell you what, there are several biographies. if i go to the library of congress and sort through their photo credits, will you accept a report, or do you need a notarized statement from the photographer? btw check out the provenance of [[File:HRiderHaggard.jpg|50px]] which has the exact same problem. by your actions on the latter item, we will judge whether you are fair dealing or just hounding.

::Do you, the uploader, have any indication whatsoever that this image was '''published''' in the US (or even elsewhere) before 1923? ''You'', the one claiming that it is public domain, has to provide evidence to support ''your'' claim; I can't prove that it isn't public domain, having no reliable indication of when the image was taken or when it was first published. Your comment is nothing but distraction, the Library of Congress has nothing to do with this file, and I am discussing this file, not any of the probably thousands of others on Commons that may have similar problems (although the one you link to is at least considerably older, and any claim that that one was not ''taken'' prior to 1923 would be dubious: publication date is not clear though): and how you will judge me is the least of my concerns.

:::''you'', would ''you'', care to address the question: what standard of proof will ''you'' accept? will ''you'' accept a search of the written photo credits in printed sources? is that acceptable to ''you''? without a confirmation from ''you'' i won't bother with such a search. stop wasting my time. the very same date of publication problem exists among two photos on the same page; ''you'' choose to selectively enforce the rules, based upon your hounding of an uploader. such conduct on '''your''' part is instructive.
