I was looking up some Dell copyrights and came across this. It is for many Dell properties and even included Brothers of the Spear. Does it mean what it looks like to me that Dell willingly released the property. Do a more search options for V3476D630. Click on a title. It will have a clickable FULL TITLE  Tall Book of Christmas & 12,270 more. When you click you get a message that looks like the rights were terminated.

Date of Recordation:    2001-11-29
Entire Copyright Document:    V3476 D628-645 P1-437

A clickable list of these titles.

John C:
I've never seen anything like it, myself.  But there's nothing in the law about termination of or giving up copyright, though, as far as I've seen, so that's probably not the final result.  No clue, though.  The best bet would probably be to give the office a call.

Yoc:
Narf, if you call please let us know what they say.

narfstar:
I would not know who to call. I did send a message to a LOC archivist.

bchat:
CIT Group/Business Credit, Inc is a financial holding company.  Since this (doc# V3476D630) refers to a previous document ("V3447 P355-390, recorded on 28Jan00") where the rights were assigned to CIT, I would guess that the copyrights were being used as collateral for a loan by Golden Books.
