Works Originally Created on or after January 1, 1978
A work that is created (fixed in tangible form for the first time) on
or after January 1, 1978, is automatically protected from the moment
of its creation and is ordinarily given a term enduring for the
author's life plus an additional 70 years after the author's death. In
the case of "a joint work prepared by two or more authors who did not
work for hire," the term lasts for 70 years after the last surviving
author's death. For works made for hire, and for anonymous and
pseudonymous works (unless the author's identity is revealed in
Copyright Office records), the duration of copyright will be 95 years
from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever is shorter.

That said, the Timex Sinclair is commercially dead, and unless there is a great
revival of untold proportions, I would assume that there is no major
reason for us to not digitize it, especially in a not for profit
manner. If the copyright owner does come forward we can remove the
links and destroy the files.

scan a few to PDF.

I'd be willing to host them on the timexsinclair.org website, I've
plenty of space.
Kind regards,
