DescriptionMu-metal assortment 1951.jpg
English: An assortment of mu-metal shapes from a 1951 advertisement in an electronics magazine. Mu-metal is a nickel iron alloy which has an extremely high magnetic permeability. It is used for shielding a variety of electronic equipment from magnetic fields. The conical shapes in background are cathode ray tube shields. The boxes at right are transformer shields.
This image is from an advertisement without a copyright notice published in a 1951 US magazine. In the United States, advertisements published in collective works (magazines and newspapers) are not covered by the copyright notice for the entire collective work. (See U.S. Copyright Office Circular 3, "Copyright Notice", page 3, "Contributions to Collective Works".) Since the advertisement was published before 1978 without a copyright notice, it falls into the public domain.
