Originally published with a copyright notice of 1937, this issue of The Owl student yearbook would have to be renewed in 1964. Online page scans of the Catalog of Copyright Entries, published by the US Copyright Office can be found here. [1]
The search of the Renewals for Books and Periodicals for 1963, 1964, 1965 and 1966 show no renewal entries for The Owl by the Editor-in-Chief Stanley D. Rogaliner, the buisness manager Harvey N. Goldstein, the Owl itself, or the University of Pittsburgh.
The copyright of the yearbook was not renewed and therefore it is in the public domain according to the criteria.Licensing
This work is in the public domain because it was published in the United States between 1929 and 1963, and although there may or may not have been a copyright notice, the copyright was not renewed. For further explanation, see Commons:Hirtle chart and the copyright renewal logs.
