Two men are in a room with one speaking about acquiring a musical item at auction; the other is addressed as Hans and invited to sit. The room contains a fireplace and wall-mounted objects.
“I picked this up yesterday at an auction room in Knightsbridge. It paid only £2 for it. Of course, I wouldn't in the ordinary way add one like this to my collection, but the, um, the tuning freed me. I'd never heard it before.” 13:58 · “You have a remarkable ear for music, Hans. Rather an unusual melody. Sit down, Hans. Thanks.” 14:25 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.
