ajaymurthy: Most interesting find of the night. Thanks Internet, you have delivered yet again. The Public Domain Review is a not-for-profit project dedicated to showcasing the most interesting and unusual out-of-copyright works available online. All works eventually fall out of copyright—from classic works of art, music and literature, to abandoned drafts, tentative plans, and overlooked fragments. In doing so they enter the public domain, a vast commons of material that everyone is free to enjoy, share and build upon without restriction. We believe the public domain is an invaluable and indispensable good, which—like our natural environment and our physical heritage—deserves to be explicitly recognised, protected and appreciated.  What’s new in the public domain Another fabulous website. Nicely designed, too, with a suitably retro look—I love the irony of having this style on the web.
