From #133 Ryan Mails, the son of the late Thomas Mails said the family still retained the copyrights to the drawings of the Mystic Warriors book,

We need to get word to Ryan Mails that his dads work ala Churchill is on Ebay!

Ryan is the only one who can complain to ebay about copyright.

True. And he has good grounds, considering that Churchill has been commercially selling the art-renditions. Ryan could sue to recover all profits from those sells, plus damages. And, if Churchill has used copyrighted art of others, they, too can sue to recover any profits and damages. This could be more than the justification Churchill gave in that CBS4 tape interview--that if the buyers didn't have sense enough to know the artwork was 'faked', that's their faults. This could cost Churchill many dollars and potentially criminal charges, if the copyright holders pursue him.

Careful, now. Some of T. E. Mails' pictures were copied from various National Geographics. He just put Indian clothes and western settings on the people.

Computer been down so this is the first I heard of this. I ran to my copy of MYSTIC WARIORS OF THE PLAINS to check it out. The Winter War Party is on page 575.
