Kretschmer, www.copyrighthistory.org Record Images Record-ID: us_1772 Full title An Act to revise, digest & Print the Laws of this Colony Full title original language N/A Abstract An Enactment by the Colonial legislature of New York ordering the printing of the colony's laws. The statue modeled on an earlier 1750 enactment did not grant exclusive publishing rights. It provided for monetary compensation to the compiler and the printer and mandated the purchase of a preset number of copies for a fixed price. The statute is illustrative of various measures sporadically used by some colonies to support printers and publishers engaged in printing projects deemed to be of public interest.
