At Augustana College Library, we're working on a project scanning in
images to be accesible through Mosaic to other schools over the
Internet.  Several of the images I'd like to use are postcards, some
from the early 1900s.  I'm unsure about copyright regulations,
though; are there specific laws regarding postcards?  I know the laws
vary for different types of print works.  How many years must go by
before a copyright expires?

Thanks!
