So no paper books available either? It has truly vanished from the face of the earth?

There were no ebooks available before copyright or in the Mid-Century AFAIK.
Does this mean all of those books have vanished. Being a bit crotchety I know, but saying that no ebook exists does not mean the book itself has vanished.
