Yes, I don't particularly care about having a complete copy, it's just the 2-3 vintage Packard articles/ads per issue that would be nice to extract. But it would end up being over 100 pages to scan manually.


Copyrights don't work like that. Just because you copy (extract) an article or two out of the magazine does not mean that article is any less copyrighted than the whole magazine. Artists and writers and publishers are entitled to own their own creations– no matter how this may look to those who don't create. If someone pirates a verse from a song, or a minute or two of a feature film, or a live performance... they are still pirating intellectual property that is protected under federal copyright laws.

It's like being a "little bit dead." It is always better to obtain official permission to use or otherwise copy materials, properties, works etc.

Ask anyone who has a web site or internet domain just how "free" all this stuff really is. This is a myth. The so-called "free internet" is not free for those who have to provide the "free" part...
