OK,
Now I'm confused. This is NOT an instruction NOR a catalog Scan (per Section 6a
of the TOS). It is a Lego Book. Why are they not allowed? The #239 book used
to be there, but it too has been removed (but the entry is still there).
Can someone at Brickshelf exlain this?
Would a photograph of pages of the booklet be acceptable (as opposed to scans)?
And while we are at it, does anyone know how long copyrights are good for? Are
these 40-50 year old items still protected under copyright laws? I know that
some copyright laws have changed a few years ago (Disney got to lengthen its
copyright for old Mickey Mouse stuff from the 1930's).
Are website posted photographs (as opposed to scans) of Lego items a legal
loophole to get around material that still is copyrighted?
A very curious
Gary Istok
P.S. I'm sure all this has been discussed long ago. Just a pointer to the
appropriate posts would be appreciated.
