Whitsuntide Fair at Preston

This film was produced by the British company Mitchell & Kenyon and released in 1906. Under the current United States copyright law, all works published or released anywhere in the world prior to January 1, 1928, have entered the public domain in the U.S. due to the expiration of their copyright terms. Even though this is a foreign production, the URAA (Uruguay Round Agreements Act) which restored copyright to certain foreign works does not apply here because the film was already in the public domain in the U.S. before the restoration acts were passed, as its maximum possible term under the 1909 Act (and subsequent extensions) for a 1906 work would have expired long ago. There is no legal mechanism for a 1906 film to remain under copyright in the United States today. Note: generated without live web grounding (the grounded research engine was unavailable). Verify the cited sources independently before relying on this determination.
