@kottke Oh, this is amazing news! Condé Nast absolutely destroyed the incredible resource that Gourmet Magazine was.
Sigh, if only they had snagged the rights to the back catalogue of magazines. Then I'd be in heaven.

@tripleman @kottke Hmmm... on a quick spot-check it looks like not all of the oldest issues have copyright renewals Some do, but the very first one appears not to, and it looks like there were later renewal gaps as well. I might need to add more to my rights information page: https://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/cinfo/gourmet

@tripleman That's right. There's a gap of 12 years or so, though, where they appear not to have renewed issue copyrights (as well as a few 1-month omissions elsewhere). There are some renewals for individual contributions as well (including some in that 12-year gap); I'm working on filling those in.

@tripleman (And they're now filled in, with all the renewals I could find for issues up to 1964. From that point onward, copyrights automatically renew even if nobody files an application.) Here's what I found: https://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/cinfo/gourmet

From the article:
"The timing, too, seems right. When Gourmet first launched 75 years ago, in January of 1941, with a big strange illustration of a boar’s head on its cover, the Fascist pigs were on the march. Within a few years, the classical colonial empires would finish dying their prolonged and violent deaths, the world would be transformed under America’s hegemony, and the wheat and milk and Coca-Cola of the semi-automated food industry would flush into the diets of half the world. We still live in that system, but it’s difficult to shake the sense that a change is afoot. The espressos have been ordered, but the bill has not yet come."
So true.
