High res pic I took six years ago:

The card reads: Warmest greetings from the DuMont publishing house. Have fun reading it!

The cover reads: Help, my cat is broken! 200 cats going beyond their limits

I actually asked them per email to send me the copies. While I get your point, I personally don't hold any grudge at all, as long as people don't claim my pics as their own. Which they don't. It's the nature of the internet that such pics spread all over the world without anybody at the end of the chain knowing the source. It's just a silly little book and I doubt they'll be making any serious money on this.

Still it's shameful that people think they can profit off of others' properties.
