: It is my understanding that works published between 1923-1963 with notice are protected for 28 years + 67 years if renewed. Does "with notice" mean that the copyright symbol much appear on the work including a newspaper? If so, would newspapers dated those years without a copyright symbol printed on the paper now be in the public domain? How can a person find out if a newspaper renewed their copyright for the additional 67 years? Thanks for any help/guidance. Cyndie

Dear Cyndie,

A complete answer would take a lot of explanation. A search of the the records of the copyrigh office would answer much of your question.

Dear Mr. Baikutov,

A patent application is usually expensive.

The patent application must filed in the US within one year of the original filing. The application cannot be filed as a provisional application. A treaty priority application on an English translation of the original application can be filed. A good translation of the application, may save you money.

JUST getting a patent does not mean anything, It is usually easy to get a patent. Only getting a GOOD patent is important. Send me an explanation of the invention with understandable drawings and information about other patents you have. We can then conduct our Reality Check(sm) for $250. The Reality Check(sm) will help to determine cost. If patent search is necessary There is a credit for the $250 against a patent search. The usual search costs $800. If this invention is electronic, the search may cost more.

We may be able to get documents by email. Any patent application will have to be a signed original document.

You can try to sell the invention with the use of non disclosure agreements. That is the simple part. The difficult part is to find some that is interested and is willing to sign. Just because you have a good invention is no assurance that it will be able to be sold. That is why we start with the Reality Check(sm), to get a primary evaluation.

.
As reference for our services. The standard polarized electric outlet plug used by everyone in the US was not only obtained by us, the plug was displayed on the Official Commemorative Poster for the 200th Anniversary of our Patent Law.
