A woman in a suit speaks with a person in a fur coat inside a shop; the transcript suggests they are discussing a sold wooden item and a purchaser who left a card. No names are spoken, and the setting is an interior shop with shelves of objects.
“Oh, nice. Are you sure that he's over here? I'm sorry. It's rather hard to find, you know, at the entire allotment.” 31:43 · “I did have one other, but I sold it earlier this afternoon. But it was only a plain wooden one. It wouldn't have been a very nice gift for a child. Really?” 31:57 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.
