Disclaimer Regarding the Digitization of this Item:
Music recordings fall in to a special category in copyright law. Before 15 February 1972, recordings of music did not and now do not have recognition or status under Federal Law; there was no copyright protection for recordings of music at the Federal Level. The protection of such so-called 'Intellectual Property' relied upon the Common Law and statutes which addressed their status only within each of the individual states.
Generally, in this environment, a violation occurred only when the reproduction of a musical recording was made for sale or profit. Many states have exempted educational or archival use as an exception to the protection of musical recordings as intellectual property.
Federal copyright could attach to sheet music, the package or record sleeve, and the record label; but not to the recording itself (before 15 February 1972.) In a great number of cases such copyright was either never registered, or if registered, was never renewed. Thus, the record sleeve and label on the record itself would fall under the same statutes governing books and other text-based creations.
