The original works would be in the public domain, but books about them can be registered in such a way that the images and descriptions in the book are protected by contract law, if not copyright law. For example, a museum or archive holding a document can use contract law to limit exposure of images of that document, even if they can't use copyright law, which enables them to derive value from providing access to the original materials.
