Illustration copyrights

[Stefan Diös]

No, I'm not about to rekindle the copyright debate we recently had...
rather, I need some help from someone regarding the practical application
of said rights. I trust the good people on this list to know all the
answers, as usual.

If I'm publishing an article about Carl Barks and want to illustrate it
with some photos from his youth, such as the ones found, for example, in
Michael Barrier's book - who do I ask for permission? Also, I'm interested
in using some caricatures made by his partners at the Disney studio, as
well as some of Barks' own cartoons from the Calgary Eye-Opener or
something like it. (Bruce Hamilton published a facsimile of one similar
magazine from the 30's some time ago.)

I already have the pictures I want to use, but how do I obtain the right to
use them? If anybody can help, please contact me in private as soon as
possible:

Thanks in advance!
