Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3098031, member: 112"]IF  I correctly understand what you're saying - yes. Yes it is a statement of fact. The two things have nothing to do with each other. But yes you can say that such and such a coin was talked about in an article in such and such magazine issue. And yes you can always state that an item was listed in a catalog in such and such an auction. You're basically ask the same question you've asked before. The only time you run into problems is when you copy text and or pictures from previous publications without written permission to do so. And even then you can sometimes copy small amounts of text under the Fair Use clause. And the reason I say sometimes is because how much text, if any, you can copy often varies depending on the length of the original publication. For example, if you want to copy a paragraph or two from an entire book, under the Fair Use Clause, as long as they are not large paragraphs you can probably do that. But if the original text is a single paragraph you might not be able to copy any at all. Copyright can be a very tangled and complicated issue so you are pretty much best served to always consult with a copyright attorney BEFORE you do anything ![/QUOTE]
