And if the author is from 1899 ?

LitCrit has a healthy backlog in those JSTOR locked away journals.

I’ve never considered that since I’m in cybersecurity, so the oldest paper I’ve seen that is from the late 80s. The majority is from the mid 90s onwards though, and due to the fast moving nature of the field anything that is old enough to have a dead author is likely out of date.
