Canada still uses Author's life + 50 years to determine whether a book is still under copyright, so this would be legal to host on MR's Canadian server.
It hasn't been posted here because no one has gotten around to creating an MR edition. There's probably a fair bit of stuff like that that is just now entering the public domain in Life + 50 countries.
If you'd like to have a go at it, I don't offhand see a problem.
