[QUOTE="Dave M, post: 892765, member: 17469"]I did some Googling around on copyrights, and the general statements seem to look like: Since these vignettes are the work of a "company" (ABNC, I presume), then the second statement applies, which to me reads that you could use a vignette that had been first published 95 years ago, or in 1915. I'm not a lawyer, and certainly there might be a "rule" enforced by the bank clerk when you sit down to order your checks, that could be totally unrelated to copyrights. For example my bank (Wells Fargo) allows us to put photos on our credit cards, but does not allow the photo to appear to be any representation of "money".
