Re: ARCHIVES Digest - 27 Mar 2001 to 28 Mar 2001 (#2001-90)



And my feeling is that whichever museum owns the "original" photograph
should have been the beneficiary of the marketing ploy.  If reproductions of
items in our collections are marketable, then those of us who are caring for
the collections -- at great expense and operating as non-profits with
budgets are hard to come by -- should be the first to benefit financially
from them.

About "Championstuff", who is supposed to be making copy prints and selling
them on ebay.  Check his feedback. One person wrote "Can't say it's negative
but photo was a copy of another photo. I feel cheated." The other 202 people
who bought these photos all posted praise!

An attorney I know mentioned that he thinks ebay is a "playground for fools
and thieves."
