A defective notice does not invalidate copyright in cases where the error is immaterial and would not mislead an infringer, such as an abbreviated name. Additionally, foreign works created outside the US are subject to copyright restoration even with a defective notice. It is not in the public domain in the countries or areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada, Mainland China (not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany, Mexico, Switzerland, and other countries with individual treaties. The copyright notice only indicates "COPYRIGHTED BY TEXAS STUDENT PUBLICATIONS, INC.", but without the year of first publication, which is supposedly 1943, therefore it is defective, hence of public domain.

About Caroline Rose Hunt

Caroline Rose Hunt (born January 8, 1923) was an American heiress, hotelier and philanthropist.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/14/obituaries/caroline-rose-hunt-de...

Caroline Rose Hunt, the Texas oil heiress who quietly diversified her investments and became one of the nation’s wealthiest women in the 1980s after two billionaire brothers tried to corner the world’s silver market and lost fortunes when the price collapsed, died on Tuesday in Dallas. She was 95.

Her death, at a hospice facility, was confirmed by a family spokesman, Andy Stern.

Unassuming, gracious, caring more about raising her children and tomatoes than about market strategies, Ms. Hunt was content to let advisers manage her affairs as her brothers Nelson Bunker Hunt, known as Bunker, and William Herbert Hunt, known as Herbert, corralled a third to half of the world’s deliverable silver in a dizzying 1980 roller-coaster ride from glut to debacle.

While her brothers hemorrhaged money and plunged into years of lawsuits, fines, damage claims and bankruptcy proceedings, Ms. Hunt, who inherited about $600 million, enlarged her portfolio of oil, gas, timber and real estate to $1.3 billion by venturing successfully into apparel, charter helicopter and small-plane services, shopping centers, office complexes and luxury hotels in the United States, Europe and Asia.
