public domain reprints
From these two replies, it seems that if the reprint is a facsimile reproduction of the original edition, then it is public domain. If the reprint is newly typeset, then probably the typesetting is copyrighted and so a scan of that type of reprint would not be permitted.

Thanks for the rapid and informative replies!
