Photography
The two family photos and the driver in the cab are stock photography from Shutterstock. The photo of the mover with the dolly is the image already in use on your current site.
One thing to flag: a standard Shutterstock license cannot be transferred from us to you. For launch, these need to be licensed in Allegiant Care’s name — either purchased under your account or licensed by us under terms that permit transfer. Per the proposal, final photography is client-provided, so these may be replaced anyway.
The Engraved Illustrations
The engravings are original artwork, created for Allegiant Care in a custom style built specifically for this project. Every engraving on these pages is drawn from a public-domain photograph held by the Library of Congress, from the Farm Security Administration and Office of War Information collections of the 1940s. These are United States government works, carrying the Library’s own rights statement of “no known restrictions.” They are free to use, and the source images are archived with the project.
The subjects are real Teamster history: a line of freight trucks at a Baltimore terminal dock, rigs running a Virginia highway, a local delivery truck, and women loading trucks at a wartime freight depot.
We took this route deliberately. An illustration made from a copyrighted photograph can still be treated as a derivative work of it, and converting a photo into an engraving does not by itself clear the underlying copyright. Sourcing from the public domain removes the question entirely.
