A group of men in hats discuss an impending eruption of 'Old Bess' at night, with one man running off to spread the news. The setting appears to be outdoors near a building or camp, under dark conditions.
“Old Bess hasn't erupted in over 27 years. George, tell Chief Magell about Old Bess.” 29:52 · “If what George says is true, this is the biggest news that's broken since... Get busy. Spread the news all over the place. Yes, sir. George.” 30:04 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.
