Credit of authorship/ ownership is given when known.  All photographs, scans, and other images coming from my personal collection are marked with my initials and a copyright date.  Unless noted otherwise in their image descriptions, all images and animations found at this site are my own, and are copyrighted.  The Cupola logo and all HTML documents at this site are copyright © 1998-2024, by Howard Partridge of Cupola Consulting.

Some of the backgrounds used on this site (like this legal pad) came from public domain sources, and their authorship is unknown.  Many of the images found in the Art Gallery section of this site are from 30+ year old postcards.  Their photographers/ studios are noted (if known) and should appear when you move your mouse over an image in the picture galleries (thumbnail pictures only).  They are definitely not for commercial use or reproduction.  As a policy, I only use these when I have no photos of my own, or photography was forbidden in the museum where the works are found.  The material found in the Wordplay section is thought part of the public domain, unless noted otherwise in the document in which it appears.  Bear in mind that everything that appears on this site is bound by its individual author's legal requirements.

All images, trademarks, and symbols used herein are the properties of their respective owners.

No animals were harmed during the creation of this site.  My computer has been acting strangely, however.  Know any good exorcists?
