Gifs of copies of the obverse and reverse of the Venus tablet
of the reign of Babylonian King Ammizaduga
(reigned 1550--1530 BC according to one chronology).
They reveal knowledge of the Venus cycle
(No-29).
Many ancient copies of these tablets existed and
which one this is I don't know.

Well it seems that the images are public domain for sure in some jurisdictions and will public domain in all in 2007. But since they were part of a book or pamphlet I assume that they are covered by fair use. I think fair use covers my quote from Thompson too. But it is still unclear in what form Langdon et al. published and who was their publisher.
