Copyrights gone wild. It’s true if a studio takes a picture of you, they own it. I tried to get a copy of a studio picture taken of my mother when she was a teenager. Now get this, the picture was taken in the late 30’s. I was not allowed to make a copy of it. I couldn’t get anyone to do it.

Yeah, copyrights are practically forever now. Didn't used to be that way but they changed the law in 1976.

I have a picture I took with a Poloroid camera in 1962.

I took it to WalMart to have it copied.

They made me sign a statement that I took the picture and it wasn’t copyrighted.
