Actually, I don't think it will go out of copyright until 1 January 2005 (in
most countries), as I think the general rule is the end of the 70th year
after the author's death.

In addition, any works he published after 1922 (if he did!) will remain in
copyright in the USA for a number of years yet.

(just to clarify matters :-)
