Public domain explanation
- The Copyright Act of 1909, which was law until 1978, determined that a work was copyrighted for 28 years. In the 28th year, the owner of the copyright had to renew the copyright. If he did not, his work went into the public domain (see <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.creativeclearance.com/guidelines.html#D2">here</a>).
- The copyright for this trailer would therefore have to be renewed in 1977.
