With today's printing/copying capabilities, Ill bet the poster could be done at WalMart. In fact..That b/w picture of me that I posted was about 4x5. I took it to WalMart..they copied it to 16x22 for less that $20..and it looks nearly perfect..

How about the Wood Duck poster, which is many times rarer than the Sharkey poster?

There was a lot of nice art back in the day and I think it would sell IF someone could obtain the copyrights. The art work on some of the old calendars and shell boxes was magnificent.

I would take one of each.
Also now days you can copy those items just about anywhere for a nominal fee.Full color obviously more.Most office store can do it in a day on several different types of paper.Or you can supply paper if you want something special.
Copyright is an issue if your selling but usually only a concern if you use a national printer thats looking out for themselves.Some of the online print shops(cafexpress,zazzles,etc.)have a database and will tell you right away if its copyrighted.

Copyright could be an issue, it may be wise to approach Remington for permission to copy if they are still under copyright.

When were these printed? The time frame for copyright is listed on this link https://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-duration.html and if they are old enough it isn't an issue. Are they old enough?

From what I understand, Remington Arms owns copyrights to all Parker and Parker Bros. advertising artwork, logos, and corporate identification letterheads and artwork.
That's a pretty loose explanation but suffice to say, when in doubt, check it out.

When I did the posters, I received a one time release from Remington legal dept. in writing and forwarded it to the PGCA BOD. Jim

I've reached out for help with a Wood Duck poster or calendar..(Not holding my breath) A local shop that has done work for me can do any reprint that I come up with. Attached is a sample calendar that I had the text done and added to the calendar. It's 46x25, and I made the frame from sassafras. I'll post to buy a Squirrel poster, and if I can get one..I'll go ahead with the reprint..

Wish you could find the Wood Duck calendar that would be the one since it's never been reproduced before. Send Destry a pm.
