What copyright are you talking about now?This recording is in the public domain and may be reproduced, distributed, or modified without permis-
sion. For more information or to volunteer, visit librivox.org | Cover image by Roy N from Pixabay. | Copy-
right expired in the U.S. because this work was published in the U.S. before 1964, and copyright was not
renewed. Copyright may still apply in other countries. | This design by carthinius is in the public domain.
You go from talking about the recording to the cover image to a copyright statement to the cover design?
The way I read this is that
a) The recording is PD (everywhere)
b) the second copyright statement is for the image - and it is wrong because the copyright of the image is clearly not expired because of pre-1964 publication and non-renewal; no: the image designer has placed it in the public domain from the very beginning and for every country, so the next sentence is moot too
c) the entire design of the cover is public domain (everywhere)
I find that confusing and I already kinda sorta know what you mean.
