Opinion Please- Especially Aussie’s
Lady in Tasmania is requesting a print of this train/tram schedule thingy, (see attachment). My question is, since this seems to be a public domain sorta piece, would there be any copyright issues? There’s a company in AU, that’s hand screen printing pretty much authentic $$$ reproductions, of these same schedules, but I wouldn’t think they could have rights to a public sign either. Of course I may be wrong.
I don’t know if they are still being used over there, but these reproductions are decorative pieces, wall hangings and such.
I usually say if you have to ask about a copyright issue, you probably already know the answer. But this seems to fall into a gray area. Would the town hold the rights? Train company, etc. ??? Could you even copyright something like this?
Thanks for any opinions, I didn’t know where else to post this, it wouldn’t let me post in the design section for some reason.
Thanks Mike
