Re: copyright. My understanding is that: copyright between 1923 and 1977 is dependent on one important fact: whether or not they were published with a copyright notice. Without a notice, these works are not eligible for copyright protection and are considered a part of the public domain.
Unless i'm mistaken, I don't see a copyright notice in the Series 1 parts catalogue.

These manuals and parts catalogues have been continuously produced, printed or distributed by the Rover Company and its successors since the 1940s and through licensing arrangements by others (like Brooklands). As such, they are covered by Copyright protection.
Other documents like Service Bulletins, Newsletters, etc and the like remain the property of the organisation providing them. Sometimes this is spelt out:
"These Bulletins are published by and are the property of THE ROVER CO. LTD."

Often later versions of the Workshop Manuals and Parts Catalogues will have corrections and superseded parts information.
Removed pages may no longer have Copyright protection - but they would be the only ones I would try and rely on as part of the public domain.

Since the late seventies even the Owners manuals (Handbooks) have:

"All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system or transmitted, in any form, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording, or other means without prior written permission from the Service Division of Land-Rover Ltd."
