MessageNo doubt and probably has more than what we can imagine.

This leads to something else I've been wondering...I've seen many images of 
posters that auction houses have sold as in many cases being posters of one of 
a kind. Are these images being sold by the auction houses to companies to be 
reproduced or are these images being copied of he internet and books?

Some examples of late, (so far only 11x17's) Bride of Frankenstein D style 1sh. 
and Snow White 40x60.
I've even noticed that Stephen Fishler's, Frankenstein 6sh. is now copied as a 
41x41 poster for sale...true not copied as a 6sh., but maybe sometime in the 
near future.

Which leads to, who owns the right to sell or copy an individual poster image? 
Does this belong to an auction house...does it belong to a seller or the new 
buyer of the original poster being copied? Or does everyone have the right to 
copy or steal an image for profit?

Surely most intentions may be if you can't own the original this is your chance 
to own a copy, but with today's opportunist, I can see more and more fakes 
hitting the market and burning the poster field.

  I have always felt that Ebay should not allow reproductions in the same 
categories as original lobby cards and posters especially some dealers in 
repros are really cagey about how they describe their wares so as not to label 
them reprints or reproductions.  This inevitably leads to fraud. Does anyone 
else agree? FRANC
