On Jan 1, awesome stuff will enter the public domain: HG Wells, Gertrude Stein, Buster Keaton, Walt Disney, Lenny Bruce (but not in the USA)

In much of the world, copyright ends 50 years after the creator's death, in some of the rest of the world, it ends 70 years after the creator's death; in the USA, things have stopped going into the public domain until 2019 (unless America decides to retroactively extend copyright…again!).







But if you're not in America, here's a partial list of the creators whose works you're getting, depending on whether you're in a +50 or +70 territory: André Breton; Buster Keaton; László Moholy-Nagy; Gertrude Stein; H. G. Wells; Frank O'Hara; Alfred Stieglitz; Evelyn Waugh; D. T. Suzuki; Paul Nash; Mina Loy; Walt Disney; Lenny Bruce; WC Fields; CS Forester; and Pauline Boty.

Class of 2017
