Banjo on My Knee

The film 'Banjo on My Knee' (1936) is currently under copyright protection in the United States. It was originally registered for copyright by Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corp. on December 4, 1936, with the registration number LP6736. Under the Copyright Act of 1909, works from this era required a renewal in their 28th year of protection to extend their term to 75 (later 95) years. A search of the Stanford Copyright Renewal Database and the Library of Congress Catalog of Copyright Entries confirms that Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corp. successfully filed a renewal application on January 16, 1964, under registration number R330541. Because the renewal was properly filed, the copyright was extended and is currently set to expire on December 31, 2031 (95 years after the original publication year).
