Great Info on Copyright

A lot of people ask us if our pinups are copyrighted.  The answer is, for most of them, simply yes.  Most of our pin-ups come from an estate of a Brown and Bigelow employee.  Brown and Bigelow keeps their copyrights up to date.  Any commercial work using their images must be licensed.
More information can be found here.

For more general information regarding whether or not a vintage or antique image can be used in your own art or product, this site offers a really great summary of the issues involved.
