I'm not certain about copyright status. There are many books and magazines that get uploaded into there that are still "active" in copyright status... however, Preservation typically will have more leniency in copyright law (depends on the country of course) as preservation is not usually seen as being competition against the copyright holder. |
I think all we'd be trying to do is preserve our history for future generations. If this could get started now -even a small portion, it could really benefit researchers and collectors. A project like this isnt something done in a day or even in a year, but it's more along the lines of watching a tree grow. If it were me, I would start out with publications that are small and that I know arent copy-written like the 1939 ACC or Card Collector's Bulletin first.
David Kathman has really done an outstanding job with a lot of our hobby history already, so hat tip to you David!
