Archy and Mehitabel no Public Domain copies?

[Taiwan_Student]

I've heard a few great poems buy Don Marquis from a collection called Archy and Mehitabel. These were read by a great story teller called Jean Shepard by the way. I'm surprised that I can find no ready to download collections. They were first in print in 1916 and as far as I know are selling strong. The cheapest e-book I have found is for the Kindle at 14.99. I can legally get the whole OZ collection for free that sold much more than Don Marquis. What gives... great copyright protection... Loyal fans...

By the way... if you like Jean Shepard, the radio humorist, I have his complete works from 1955 to all the tribute shows to him after he passed away as part of the Jean Shepard project. PM me...
