I may be able to locate a non-sepia tone photo WITHOUT finding out the
name and contact information of the photographer. Would this be
sufficient if the information I provide also comes with a means by
which you can legally acquire limited use of the photo?

Yes. I don't really need the name of the photographer if i can find a
full color image.

Does it have to be in color or can it be in black and white also?

I can't guarantee that I can find one in color if I can find one at all.

I was not able to locate the image in color, however I did contact
Corbis who indicated that since the image in rolaty-free. While they
would not divulge the photographer's name (that's how they make money,
you know) they said you could purchase the sepia-toned copy from them
and manipulate it however you wish. In other words, you could make the
sepipa image black and white or you could manually colorize it to some
extent depending on how much you know about photo manipulation
programs.
Is this a sufficient answer to your question in lieu of an actual
color copy, since we now know that one is not available?

I had contacted Corbis and had already learned the same information
that you provide. . We do not want to colorize a black and white
image, That won't give us the result we are looking for. That is why I
am attempting to get a more in-depth answer from Google Answers. We
believe that the original photo may have been shot as a full color
image and then converted to cepia and if this is the case, we want to
purchase rights to the color original. Thanks for your response.

You're quite welcome. Just a word here about photos. My wife is a
photographer and when she does sepia shots she typically begins with a
clean black and white image so as to avoid too much clutter. I don't
know if this is how everyone does it or not but I mention it because
its highly possible that there never was a color version of this photo
even if you do manage to find the photographer.
Good luck;
