I don't think copyrights expire, but there may be something you have to do periodically to maintain them, like file for a renewall every 17 years. A company that just slowly went under and disappeared may well have let their rights lapse. Perhaps a search of the US Patent Office web site would help. They administer copyrights in the US. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
