A VERY complex subject rivaling the Infield Fly Rule. Very
basically copyrights are for 28 years and then can be
renewed for 47 years but the exceptions are incredibly
numerous which is why lawyers were invented.

Basically, copyrighted works published between 1923 and
1963 (such as original IH manuals) which were not renewed
are now in the public domain and anybody can reproduce
them for any reason, including profit. But you have to
determine, through the Library of Congress Copyright
Office, whether in fact the copyrights were renewed in order
to be safe.
