Best Answer

You can register copyright of the manuscript only if you own the rights to the work, for example, by will or by inheritance. Copyright is the right of the author of the work or the author's heirs or assignees. It does not belong to the person who only owns or possesses the physical work itself.

Since copyright does not expire upon the death of the holder, the copyright will pass to the holder's heir. This copyright can be sold or passed to other people as appropriate, but will expire 70 years after the death of the original holder, unless special measures are requested and granted to further protect them from becoming public domain.
