    Unless the author and publisher have relinquished the copyright or have granted permission to make reprints for sale -- all highly unlikely, IMO -- then the answer would be "no."

    Being a copyright lawyer, I am going to have to say "no".

    Printed in 1963. What is the length of time for a copyright to remain valid?

    They don't expire as long as they are renewed, even if it is out of print. Otherwise, it's like "It's A Wonderful Life" and becomes public domain.

    No. Reminded me to look for this HK-222 I bought about 20 years ago for $22. Anaconda was offering an NGC
    Proof 66 for around $1000
