No Known Copyright

NSW State Archives is unaware of any current copyright restrictions on some material. This may be because the term of copyright has expired or that copyright does not apply to this type of work. The majority of images with ‘no known Copyright’ are images where Crown copyright has expired. Check on Flickr to see some of these images for our Collection.
