The Sultan's Wife

The film 'The Sultan's Wife' is a two-reel silent comedy directed by Clarence G. Badger, starring Bobby Vernon and Gloria Swanson. It was produced by the Keystone Film Company and distributed by the Triangle Film Corporation, with an original US release date of September 1, 1917. Under current US copyright law (17 USC § 304), all works published or registered in the United States prior to January 1, 1928, have entered the public domain due to the expiration of their maximum 95-year copyright term. Because this film was published in 1917, its copyright expired no later than the end of 1992, regardless of whether a renewal was filed. Consequently, the work is now free for use by the public.
