Public Domain

This is the most problematical as determining if something from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s are in the public domain requires research on each item. I note each item that I believe it is in the public domain. I am not a lawyer nor have I expertise in intellectual property law so while I have made an effort to follow the applicable law, I may make inadvertent mistakes. I will remove any item questioned and will work with the owners of removed items to assure that similar mistakes are not made in the future. The decision tree that I use is shown in the image on the right (click for larger view). This is based on a number of references but the one in the most concise form that I’ve see is published by Cornell University

Material of my own research and creation.

Data and quotes extracted from reference sources are cited with a hyperlink of the form [reference] to a full description of the reference source. Items that are not credited are of my own creation.
