"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing"
Edmund Burke


Jack Adelman, Inc. v. Sonners & Gordon, Inc, 112 F.Supp. 187 (SD New York 1934)

The complaint alleged that the defendants have infringed plaintiff's copyright of a drawing of a dress issued to plaintiff on August 3, 1933, by making and selling a dress like the one in plaintiff's drawing. Jurisdiction was based upon the copyright law

"This seems clear if it be kept in mind that it is the drawing which is assumed to be a work of art and not the dress. It follows that plaintiff's copyright gives it the exclusive right to make copies or reprints of the drawing only, and that it gives the copyright owner no monopoly of the article illustrated."
Case dismissed.
