This is an email from our librarian about Tiger by the Tail! and its confusing copyright page, which was a question from Gary: ----- Forwarded Message ---- Hi Carrie, I'd go with 1951 for this one. Amazon let me see it after I signed in. Both stories appeared in 1951 and there are no copyright renewals on file. Even though this book was published in 2009, it's explicitly telling us that the copyright is 1951 at the time of publication. I can find no trace of renewal, either. So 1951 it is. ----- Forwarded Message ---- From: Gary Petraccaro <garyp130@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Carrie Karnos <ckarnos@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Fri, June 25, 2010 4:14:26 AM Subject: Unusual Copyright Notice TIGER BY THE TAIL! Published in 2009 by Science Fiction Classics. "Honorable Enemies" originally appeared in Future Combined with Science Fiction Stories, May 1951. "Tiger by the Tail" originally appeared in Planet Stories, November 1950-January 1951. No record of copyright renewals on file. Does anyone have any ideas about the copyright for this one?
