Crop of page 226 of the 1935 Pitt student yearbook, the Owl. This work was originally published before 1964 and 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. Published with a copyright notice of 1935, this issue of the Owl student yearbook would have to be renewed in 1962.

The search of the Renewals for Books and Periodicals for 1961, 1962 and 1963 show no renewal entries for The Owl by the editor Charles Foreman, the business manager Jules L. Green, 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.
