Infringement of Copyright Claim

Chicago, Ill.—The Christian Science Publishing Society, on May 3, 1917, filed in the United States district court for the northern district of Illinois, eastern division, a bill in equity against Art Masters Society, known also as Art Masters Reproducing Company, and others, in Chicago, alleging infringement of copyrights owned by the Publishing Society, upon the picture of Mary Baker Eddy, seeking an injuction restraining the Art Masters Society and others from publishing and selling pictures of Mrs. Eddy which are claimed by the complainants to be an infringement of copyrights owned by The Christian Science Publishing Society. The bill also alleges that the pictures published by the defendants purport to be imitations of an oil painting of Mrs. Eddy, and that they closely resemble the pictures copyrighted and sold by The Christian Science Publlishing Society, on all of which pictures sold by the Publishing Society appear the words "Copyrighted 1911 by The Christian Science Publishing Society."
