Copyright renewals for 1950

121 pages, covering renewals made in 1950 for all types of works except music.

Original copyrights date from 1922 and 1923. 1922 copyrights could also be renewed in 1949, and 1923 copyrights could also be renewed in 1951. All 1922 copyrights have now expired, even if they were renewed.

Philip Harper has now transcribed the renewal records for 1923 copyrights into textual form. You can find them at this site.

A guide to abbreviations used in the records is now available, as are registration statistics by category. Other introductory information may be available soon.
