If we had been asked what particular class of property did not require, for the security of the owner or the convenience and protection of the public, any kind of registration machinery, we should have answered, the property in literary productions. When a book is published, of a kind to which the author wishes to establish and perpetuate his claim, it bears, almost without exception, the name of the author, the name of the publisher, and the name of the printer. The name of the author, it is true, need not be printed or appear in a book; but, by law, the title of the book, with the name and residence of the publisher, ought to be registered with the Stationers' Company; and so the name and residence of the printer are directed to be printed on the first or last leaf of every book printed by him; and this must be done under a heavy penalty*. The latter statutory direction is, we believe, in practice invariably complied with; and if the former, viz. that relating to registration at Stationers' Hall, is, as we believe it is, very generally neglected, that only proves how practically unnecessary has been found any other system of registration than that which consists of the public exhibition and issue of a book by the publisher. If, indeed, a book obtains any reputation, and becomes, de facto, a property having value, it is publicly sold, and copies enough are certain to be in existence and easily traced; and whether it obtains a sale or not, as copies are deposited, of necessity, in certain public libraries, it is, for all practical purposes, perfectly impossible that evidence can be lost, of the fact of a given book having been put forth as the work of A., printed by B., and published by C.

Then, with respect to assignments or mortgages of copyrights. Of course, to the public generally it is perfectly immaterial who is the actual owner of a copy* See 39 Geo. 3, c. 79, and 2 & 3 Vict. c. 12. VOL. VI.

F

right; the knowledge of that fact can only become material to a person who is dealing with the apparent owner as a purchaser or mortgagee, or in any way in which he has an interest in acquiring a valid and unincumbered title in the copyright. Now, here again, we apprehend, that of all kinds of property, copyright is that in respect to which a purchaser must incur least danger of being deceived as to the title to that on which he is advancing his money. Generally speaking, the publisher of a work is informed who is the real owner, because, if the author has dealt with it, by way either of sale or mortgage, the purchaser or mortgagee will, for his own protection, have given immediate notice to the publisher, that he is the party to whom an account is to be rendered. It is true, there may be cases where an author or other owner of a copyright would incumber it, and the incumbrancer might, so long as his interest was duly paid, not give notice of his incumbrance to the publisher; and thus leave it in the power of the mortgagor to defraud a second incumbrancer.

It is obvious, however, that, owing to the very fluctuating value of most literary productions, such cases must be extremely rare; because, none but the most careless of men would be likely to advance money on the security of a literary work, to an amount anything approaching its apparent value, without previously giving notice to the publisher. And, if there be no application to such cases of the equitable doctrine of notice as between senot be, as the first incumbrancer would have the legal veral incumbrancers, which, we apprehend, there would title, a very short and simple enactment would suffice for applying a remedy to this defect of the present state of the law.
