 Long shot - copyright issue - Crankcase
I'm almost certain nobody will have anything to say on this one, but just in case...

Mrs C has been for the past 30 years collecting local newspapers on our travels around the country, and she has clipped lots of scrapbooks worth of funny and ridiculous items. Must be hundreds, from dozens of sources.

She'd like to scan them and put them on the web somewhere, not for commercial gain but just because some are really very amusing. No really. They are. Honest.

Anyway, I'm not at all sure where we would stand over copyright on this - if we have to write to whoever owns the rights to a small ad published in the Plymouth Mercury in 1982 then clearly it's a non-starter. I'm inclined to think for this reason the idea is a dead duck, unfortunately.

Anybody have any thoughts?
