We seem to be presuming that if the work is signed Sebah, or even Sebah & Joaillier (which is a partnership entered into by Jean at around the age of 16, and with a Frenchman who also might hold copyright) - that we can use the death date for Pascal Sebah and claim it's out of copyright.

This is not actually true, Jean Sèbah died in 1947, and I believe still holds copyright in Turkey, although I may be mistaken. I haven't yet found dates for Policarpe Joaillier, but his copyright would also need considered.

This is not actually true, Jean Sèbah died in 1947, and I believe still holds copyright in Turkey, and don't see how he wouldn't. [http://www.luminous-lint.com/app/photographer/Polycarpe__Joaillier/A/ Polycarpe Joallier died in 1904], so he's probably alright, but...

I don't see any justification for how Jean Sebah's work is out of copyright. The linked category specifically gives the information needed to see this is a copyvio.
