Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: comic frustration; themes: domestic mishap, physical comedy; style notes: medium shot, static framing, high-contrast black-and-white lighting typical of 1940s studio shorts

A man in a vest stands behind an ironing board holding a hat, reacting with sounds of growling and surprise. The setting appears to be an interior room with a bulletin board and chair visible.

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.
