- Model opinion, not evidence: mood: whimsical and nostalgic; themes: winter recreation, romantic courtship, musical performance; style notes: Stylized animation with dark backgrounds and bright text; simple, repetitive framing of sleighs; high-contrast lighting for text legibility.

“I'm going to ride a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.” 4:12 · “Oh, I thought it is to ride a one-horse open sleigh. Just the other night, while riding in my sleigh, I passed the pretty miss, walking on the way.” 4:12 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. 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 our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
