Why this status applies

Under US copyright law, all works published before January 1, 1929, have entered the public domain regardless of renewal status. 'Koko Nuts' is a short film from the 'Out of the Inkwell' series created by Max and Dave Fleischer. It was originally released on December 6, 1925, and distributed by Red Seal Pictures Corp. While بسیاری of the Fleischer shorts were subject to copyright renewals in the 1950s (typically by Paramount or successors), the 95-year maximum term for works published in 1925 expired at the end of 2020. This makes the film definitively public domain in the United States as of January 1, 2021. No further search of the CCE or Stanford Renewal Database is required for works of this age.
