The film's copyright was renewed in a timely manner by the company which had acquired it. Originally registered for copyright as LP11703 with a declared publication date of October 1, 1942, the continuation of copyright was contingent upon renewal between the 27th and 28th anniversaries of that date. Renewal occurred November 7, 1969, number R472317.
Renewal was filed by EMKA, Ltd., holder of the rights to Paramount's pre-1950 library, and now part of NBC Universal Television Distribution. This makes Universal Studios the film's distributor for all media. The copyright is now scheduled to run until 95 years after the publication date (2037). The film has not lapsed into the public domain.
