Somehow I doubt that a still of a section of the film that only lasted a few seconds will be available, but I have to try. I might have to rent it and freeze frame it until I can shoot it with my camera. Hmmm. I wonder how copyrights apply to 55 year-old films?

If you want to illustrate something about the movie (and you're not using the image commercially), a single frame would easily fall into fair use. On the other hand, if you only want an illustration of the scooter, it would be more of a grey area.

That's what I figured. I mainly just want it to add it to my collection of vintage Cushman pictures. I might post it on my blog. However, I don't think I'm going to find it anyway, unless I just rent it.
