"Observations On Extension Of Protection Of Copyright Of Designs" by George Brace is a historical legal treatise from the early Victorian era advocating for extended protection of industrial designs. This work contrasts British and French practices, arguing that Britain must strengthen property rights in designs to foster national taste and prevent piracy. Brace examines France’s Arręt du Conseil du Roi, Lyons silk-design protection, and the Conseil de Prud’hommes, illustrating how secure rights support design culture and manufacturing excellence. He discusses the moral and economic consequences of copying, citing magistrates’ testimony on piracy’s impact on trade in Lancashire and beyond. The volume also includes an analysis of the Copyright of Designs Act (5 and 6 Vict. C. 100), detailing registration requirements, classes of articles, durations, penalties, and remedies, along with practical forms and notes from parliamentary inquiries and Mr. Dyce’s design-school inquiries. Published in 1842, it remains a foundational text on design law and policy.
