Wrong magazine[edit]

There is something wrong here. Black Mask referred to here should be the 60's magazine put out in New York by Ben Morea and others.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.225.221.99 (talk) 06:40, 5 May 2003 (UTC)[reply]

Arguably, the pre-war pulp magazine came first... I guess someone needs to set up a new article for the 1960s Black Mask, and mention it as a footnote on the existing article. Just out of interest, was the later magazine named, in some kind of post-modern manner, after the earlier?

Fair use rationale for File:BlackMaskFalcon2.jpg[edit]

File:BlackMaskFalcon2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a non-free use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Public Domain Day 2025[edit]

Sadly we had to delete the 1929 cover that was featured here. We should add it back on Public Domain Day next year.

Here is the text caption that went with it:

September 1929 cover of Black Mask, featuring part 1 of serialization of The Maltese Falcon, by Dashiell Hammett. Illustration of private eye Sam Spade by Henry C. Murphy, Jr. SDudley (talk) 02:37, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
