Legal Question in Legal Ethics in Massachusetts
copywrite
Can I tear out portions of magazine
pages, combine these pages pictures
with others (including mostly
photographs), rip up and re- glue on
a sheet in a collage of shots, scan in
final design to be used for stationery,
decoupage onto wooden boxes or
whatever and sell under my name?

Re: copywrite
If you are going to do more than create a one-of-a-kind collage, NO! Incorporating copyrighted images into another object produced in large numbers for sale is certain to lead to allegations of infringement.
