By default any clipart from OCAL issued in Public Domain (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain) i.e. you can use it for any
purpose, commercial, non-commercial or whatever.

*NB - now default license is CC0 (http://creativecommons.org/choose/zero/) -
it is very close to meaning of PD. You're still free to use it in any
application.*

Of course, sometimes users of OCAL (especially new ones) not catch that all
work they submit to OCAL automatically goes to PD (CC0), so sometimes
copyright issues appear.
In this case, Gerald_G is well-known contributor, so you can use his clipart
without any concern about copyright problems.

Anyway - your decision to contact author for more confidence is more than
praise!

HTH, Oleg.

P.S. Welcome to community!
