[edit] Licensing

Works copyrighted before 1964 had to have the copyright renewed sometime in the 28th year. If the copyright was not renewed the work is in the public domain. It is best to search 6 months before and after the required year. Some magazines are published the month before the cover date and some registrations may be delayed for a few months.

This 1930 issue of Radio News would have to be renewed in 1957. Online page scans of the Catalog of Copyright Entries, published by the US Copyright Office can be found here. http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/cce/

The search of the Renewals for Periodicals for 1956, 1957 and 1958 show no renewal entries for Radio News. Ziff-Davis Publishing acquired Radio News in early 1938 and owned the magazine in 1957. The magazine was then named Radio & TV News. Based on searches of the copyright records, Ziff-Davis Publishing did not make it a practice to renew magazine copyrights.

The copyright on the magazine was not renewed and it is in the public domain.

This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1923 and 1963, and its copyright was not renewed. It may not be in the public domain in countries that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada, China (not Macao or Taiwan), Germany, and Switzerland.
