Finding
no renewal entry found for 1968-1970 in the CCE motion-picture renewal sections
In the public domain since
1 January 1970 (end of the 28th year, no renewal)

A renewal had to be filed in the 28th year and would be listed in the 1968 or 1969 volume; volumes searched: 1968, 1969, 1970.

The renewal sections are OCR text of printed volumes; a damaged record can hide a renewal. Before relying on this, search the linked volumes yourself for the title and for number MP11833.
