Usually a credit is fine, though some publishers use a gag clause to limit this and one has to write for permission. I never use gag clauses in my publishing contaracts but others infact do. Do not assume that just because a company is no longer in business that the meterial falls under public domain. some contracts have a predetermined length of time. A document with writen permission is your best protection. If I cannot personaly aquire a writen and signed release from the said copywrite holder I will not use the quote.
