#DUPE#

The film '#DUPE#' (also known as 'Dupe') was produced by the American Mutoscope & Biograph Company and registered for copyright as a motion picture in 1904. Under the law governing US works from this era, copyright protection was granted for an initial term of 28 years with the option to renew for a second term. Regardless of whether the copyright was renewed, all works published or registered in the United States prior to January 1, 1928, have entered the public domain. This transition occurred as their maximum statutory copyright terms expired. As a 1904 production, this film has been in the public domain for many decades.
