There's been a lot of good informative information shared. Could we please keep the tone civil, and not get into personal conflicts.

Just pointing out. That's the only know vintage stamper picture so you didn't have many options. You could just say - yup and thanks John for the picture. But instead....

That's not how copyright works. If the picture was taken with GM's permission, then the photographer owns the copyright. It's that simple. GM can restrict picture taking, and often do.
Else Hot Rod, the AP, Motor Trend, the local newspapers, etc would not have the copyright to all of the pictures they took at GM facilities.
You have a copyright for your book, but GM still maintains the copyright to all the GM pictures in it.

Why do I feel like I'm in a sandbox?

Bill I am pretty sure it is a different guy... BUT he is the same guy who is apparently taking credit for also placing this image on the internet tho...

Indeed the same image that Kurt is droning on here about, and the same image that M. Hanson has openly taken credit for, and the same image that GM Legal says that if taken by a GM employee no valid claim can be made because the photo was taken during an employment context.

So to keep the peace: Credit to M. Hanson AND John Z, Kurt Sonen and the entire CRG, the Corvette people The NCRS and finally -General Motors Company.

There EVERYBODY should be happy now.

Oh one more thing.. Now that we are finally looking at the Hi Resolution image - this stamper is clearly loaded with 1980's GM vin script stamps.
