Postal Service, museum in dispute over photos

Postal Service, museum in dispute over photos | Philadelphia Inquirer | 03/01/2009: "A dispute over the rights to the images of the historic post office murals almost forced the State Museum of Pennsylvania to pull the plug on the 'Common Canvas' exhibit.
In 2007, the museum informed the U.S. Postal Service that it would mount an exhibit featuring high-quality photographs of the New Deal-era murals of Pennsylvania.
'We thought they'd be excited and happy,' museum director Jack Leighow said.
Instead, the exhibit touched off a skirmish between the Postal Service and the state over whether the artwork is in the public domain."
