Possibly not if they get the explanation, along with a
copy of the copyright page. Maybe the book was never
copyrighted.
Despite what I found, please send me copies of the
pages anyway and I'll see what I can find. Maybe the
copyright of the Introduction is enough, or maybe it's
there and too small or change for you to see. Can you
send me a whtever the photo or graphic is called? Or
just a scan as rtf.
