I'm a woodworker. I'm looking to turn the cover of Altecs loudspeaker demonstration LP into a shadow box. Where would I find out whether or not it is okay to transform this work into something of my own? I can find almost zero info about the LP or the artist that did the cover. Any info is very much appreciated.

Well, as it is said in art history, it certainly could be Rene Magritte studio. The title is Blank Signature. You just need to be able to borrow unabashedly.

You bought it, you can play it, display it, draw on it, sell it. Just don't duplicate it for sale. :dont-know:

Have you tried over at the Altec user's forum? Todd White and co. might have the lore about that cover.

Right, but what if i'm turning it into something like this, or using, say, the face for part of a design i'm doing. As I said, i'm not trying to steal anyones work, but if it's available i'd like to use it.
