Why this status applies
Under current US copyright law, all works published before January 1, 1928, have entered the public domain. 'Krazy Kat Goes A-Wooing' was a silent animated short produced by Gregory La Cava for William Randolph Hearst's International Film Service and was released on January 31, 1916.
Because the film was published more than 95 years ago (as of January 1, 2022), its copyright protection has expired. This applies regardless of whether the copyright was originally registered or renewed correctly. The film is widely available in historical archives and public domain collections due to its age.
