What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WASHINGTON
I'm wondering what licensing/copyright/trademark issues are involved if one wanted to reproduce a set of computer instructions printed on the old 80-column punch cards from +40 years ago.
These punch cards were never available to the public for sale but now there may be a very small market to reproduce them. The issue is that they would have the original company's name on there that used them (no trademark or copyright signs on the original cards though).
Do copyrights or trademarks apply here and if so how long do they last and what licensing issues may there be?
Thanks
