[lace] Miss Channer mat- copyright

2014-01-07 Thread Jean Nathan
Just looked at the Copyright Law page again and it states that:

For literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works70 years from the end of the
calendar year in which the last remaining author of the work dies.If
 the
author is unknown, copyright will last for 70 years from end of the
 calendar
year in which the work was created, although if it is made 
available to the
public during that time, (by publication, authorised 
performance, broadcast,
exhibition, etc.), then the duration will be 70 
years from the end of the
year that the work was first made available.


So for any other versions which have no designer noted on them, it would
really need to be established when it was first made available to establish
when copyright runs out - good luck with that.

Happy New Year Diana

I've been following with interest the posts about Miss Channer's mat and 
wonder if it might be a good idea to contact Tricia Bury, as she might 
possibly know a little more of the history relating to the pricking(s)?


Fond Regards
Cathy

I have just notice that the acknowledgement to
Pat Bury in the pattern pack is for 'The adapted pricking, sample and 
note'
- so the large mat picture is the original? Sorry am I playing catch up 
here

;-)

[lace] Miss Channer mat

2014-01-04 Thread Diana Smith
My 1928 first edition of 'Pratical Lacemaking - Bucks Point-Ground' says
exacty the same. There is no other mention that I can find in the text of the
mat.
 
I have in the past recognised some of the component parts as having
come from other, possibly older, designs. I guess that is only to be expected
considering the wealth of old designs she had at her fingertips. It is a shame
that much of her collection was split up between various different museums
as she would have been in a prime position during her lace life to acquire
many of the old parchments.
