namisgr Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Wanted to keep this thread going, so here is a small grouping of Bronze Age Winnies that are (gasp!) unslabbed. I especially dig the Big John Buscema cover on the 190. And just what the heck happens anyway when the Goddess of Death herself dies??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFB Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Is it copyright infringement for you to re-produce the image? Hmmm. That's an interesting if strange question. I'm not selling the image, I'm selling the book. The image/certificate is there to verify the provenance or validate the book in question. I'm technically profiting by selling the book although I'm not mass producing the certificate (each is unique) or altering the book in any way. As the owner of the book in question, I'm probably given leeway in this matter since it goes toward the provenance which is itself a quasi-legal definition to prove lineage. If reproducing the cover constituted copyright infringement, then each comic auction with a photograph would be illegal wouldn't it? That would include every auction catalog or dealer catalog or Website as well. If that isn't "Fair Use," then I don't know what is. I think there's nothing wrong with it.

Red Hook Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 I have always loved the great lurid color scheme of FF#8! One of my fave FF covers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfilosa Posted September 10, 2004 Author Share Posted September 10, 2004 Very nice! I need to get Doug to sell me some Bronze Age Winnies that he doesn't feel would get 9.6 (or higher). Please try to keep this thread going. I have a few more Strange Tales Mass copies to post (a few 9.6's), but I have no power at my house (thanks to hurricane Frances). I also took a picture of the entire Strange Tales Mass run #136-168, which I will post. Keep it going!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Zipper Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Finally got power back so here are some more from the Mass run I recently acquired. I've asked before, and never got a response, so I'll try again... Why are Mass. Pedigrees denoted as "Mass. Copy" ? Why the "Copy"? No other pedigrees TTBOMK carry the "Copy" denotation?

sfilosa Posted September 11, 2004 Author Share Posted September 11, 2004 I don't know why the Mass copies are called "Copy". They are from an Original Owner just like Pacific Coast, Curator, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasonff Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Another: Beautiful books Sfilosa!! I don't know a lot about the Mass. pedigree. What's the history of this original owner collection? I've read a bit from Matt Nelson as well and am looking forward to his book - I personally find the pedigree stories fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
