Two men in cowboy hats talk near a stagecoach; another man updates a population tally on a chalkboard; three men, including one in a suit, converse indoors. The transcript mentions cleaning a coach, a franchise to Buchanan, and welcoming a player arriving by stagecoach.
“That was a close one. It sure was. Where can I get a rag and some water? Did he get you? No, we got to clean that coach up.” 14:08 · “Our franchise calls for a round trip to Buchanan twice a week. We gotta get started.” 14:15 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.
