The original author of the article holds the copyright. Sometimes the publisher also retains the right to republish but each condition is different. This is why the number of compilations of old disks and cylinders are so scarce, among others. It also explains why reprints of old magazines etc are quite scarce now.

It is no longer a simple cut and dried decision or answer.

I very well do understand the issues.  I have not missed the point.

Rich, you may be missing the point. You just replied to Allen Koenigsberg that 
there may be copyright problems with APM articles.  Since Allen is the 
publisher of APM, he IS the copyright holder.  And I wouldn't be surprised if 
he'd be willing to republish any article that someone requested.

You may want to do some research on the present copyright laws.  You are going 
to be surprised I bet.

I don't  know what kind of copyright issues there may be, but I'd like to see 
some  of the more timeless articles and studies from these early newsletters 
and  magazines republished in ITG.
--------------
APM published 90 issues from 1973 to 1993, probably over 2000 pages - our  
largest issue if i recall was 32 pages.
  I have tried to incorporate some of the material in my ongoing  articles for The Sound 
Box (CAPS), edited by Rene Rondeau. Such articles include  the world's only laterally 
recorded cylinder, the 2-minute Blue Amberols used at  the "miniature" Panama 
Canal, the lost brown wax recording of a man born in  1790, some unusual Berliner discs, 
unusual coin-op models, the very first Amet  Echophone, the origins of the Zonophone, the 
Chicago Hub-Gore  Automaton, etc.
