A friend of mine in South Africa, Isabel Hofmeyr, passed on this image of the first page of the first edition of the English translation of Gandhi's "Hind Swaraj" - or "Indian Home Rule" in translation. (Hind Swaraj was the blueprint for India's freedom movement).
The book was published in South Africa in 1909, and is rarely available. Isabel was able to see it courtesy Uma Dhupelia-Mesthrie, who owns a copy.
And the copyright legend on this front page?
It reads: "No rights reserved"
Isabel and Uma kindly offered to donate the image to Commons, and you can see it here:

Finally, an answer to the great copyright question that has never been asked: "What would Gandhi do?" :)
Cheers, Achal
