This link was made after a language model re-read the damaged OCR (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro); the reading was accepted only because the number and date or title it reported agree with the catalog. Its note: “Serial part 222. Original date '27Novil' corrected to 27Nov41 based on surrounding entries (all 1941) and renewal date 16Jan69 (28 years later). Original number 'Ml1943' read as MP11943 (OCR misread 'P' as 'l' and dropped '1').”

Registration MP12039 (part 9) No renewal found

Term began: 1941-12-23
Claimant: Hearst Metrotone news, inc,
Class: MP — published motion picture other than a photoplay (numbering series begun Sept. 1928)
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 would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and no matching renewal was found. A work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year.

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 MP12039.
