This may need someone to do a LOT of digging in UK archive sources to find the lifetimes though :) ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 10:06, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Given the dates, that suggests a possible copyright concern as the UK considers collobrative works to have joint authorship and it's the last surviving authors lifetime that determines the copyright status. In any case it would be worth adding some of these to Wikidata I think :) Thanks for looking. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 14:43, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked into this matter. This says that a sub-editor is not necessarily an author. The authority given for this proposition is Cummins v Bond [1927] 1 Ch 167. James500 (talk) 18:38, 2 July 2019 (UTC) This edition was also published by the Cromarty Law Book Company in Philadelphia in the United States. James500 (talk) 06:10, 3 July 2019 (UTC) I do not think this volume is a single work of joint authorship. It is possible for a volume to include multiple separate works. If the contents of a volume have more than one author, it does not automatically mean they are joint authors of a single work. In any event, if there is a problem, it exists on the wikimedia commons, not here. James500 (talk) 13:46, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
