This image was printed in
The Capital Times
, Madison, Wisconsin, accompanying the first published article about Orson Welles. It appears below the headline, "Cartoonist, Actor, Poet and only 10". The caption reads "Orson G. Welles" [sic], with photo credit to De Longe, a photography studio in Madison. The text of the article visible in the clipping reads as follows:
A poet, artist, cartoonist, and actor at 10 years old.
Orson G. Welles, a pupil in the fourth grade at the Washington school, is already attracting the attention of some of the greatest literary men and artists in the country. - This image is reproduced in a feature story that appeared in the issue of The Saturday Evening Post dated January 20, 1940 (Volume 212, Number 30). The clipping appears on page 9 of that issue, beginning a three-part series on Welles by Alva Johnston and Fred Smith, titled "How to Raise a Child: The Education of Orson Welles, Who Didn't Need It".
- The image's publication February 19, 1926, in The Capital Times is derived from What Ever Happened to Orson Welles? A Portrait of an Independent Career (2006) by Joseph McBride (page 311). McBride notes that it was incorrectly sourced in the past to the Madison Journal or the Wisconsin State Journal . He attests that it appeared on the School Page of The Capital Times .
- This image is not one of the photographs registered for copyright by the De Longe photography studio in 1926 as shown here (page 48); and there are no 1926 copyright registrations of photographs by The Capital Times (page 38).
- A search for copyright renewals in 1954 shows none for De Longe studio or The Capital Times .
