[23] The notice of copyright must consist either of the word
"Copyright" or the abbreviation "Copr." accompanied by the name of the
copyright proprietor, and if the work be a printed literary, musical,
or dramatic work, the notice shall include also the year in which the
copyright was secured by publication. In case, however, of copies of
(_f_) Maps; (_g_) Works of art; models or designs for works of art;
(_h_) Reproductions of a work of art; (_i_) Drawings or plastic works
of a scientific or technical character; (_j_) Photographs; (_k_) Prints
and pictorial illustrations, the notice may consist of the letter
C inclosed within a circle, thus: ©, accompanied by the initials,
monogram, mark or symbol of the copyright proprietor: _Provided_, that
on some accessible portion of such copies or of the margin, back,
permanent base or pedestal, or of the substance on which such copies
shall be mounted, his name shall appear.
The notice of copyright must be applied in the case of a book or other
printed publication, upon its title-page or the page immediately
following [the back of the title-page], or if a periodical either
upon the title-page or upon the first page of text of each separate
number or under the title heading, or if a musical work either upon its
title-page or the first page of music; but one notice of copyright in
each volume or in each number of a newspaper or periodical published is
sufficient.

themselves.

[47] This is often an important matter in the case of unbound sheets
shipped to England, as the "country of origin" must be printed on all
such sheets, and the printer's imprint must contain the letters "U.S.A."
[48] These can be purchased at such stores as the Dennison Mfg. Co. at
a small price.

[50] The British Museum enters British noblemen under the family
name. The reasons for entry under the title are that British noblemen
are always so spoken of, and always sign by their titles only. The
reasons against it are that the founders of noble families are often
as well known--sometimes even better--by their family name as by
their titles (e.g., _Charles Jenkinson_ afterwards _Lord Liverpool_,
_Sir Robert Walpole_, afterwards _Earl of Oxford_); that the same man
bears different titles in different parts of his life thus Philip
Stanhope published his "History of England from the Peace of Utrecht"
as Lord Mahon, and his "Reign of Queen Anne" as Earl Stanhope; that it
separates members of the same family (Lord Chancellor Eldon would be
under _Eldon_ and his father and all his brothers and sisters under the
family name _Scott_), and brings together members of different families
(thus the earldom of Bath has been held by members of the families of
Shaunde, Bourchier, Granville, and Pulteney, and the family name of the
present Marquis of Bath is Thynne), which last argument would be more
to the point in planning a family history. The same objections apply to
the entry of French noblemen under their titles, about which there can
be no hesitation. The strongest argument in favor of the Museum rule is
that it is well-established, and that it is desirable that there should
be some uniform rule.
