								Robert, thanks for your comments and information.

Not where I am (or at least not until 80 years after the creator's death). 
Same applies to even photographic reproductions of a three-dimensional work (as we have previously discussed on this Forum).

Again where I am there is a law about marking reproductions "REPRODUCTION" and this is more consumer protection than artist protection (Decret sur la repression des fraudes.) 
 
Also, here (France), 'original' (upto 12) and 'piece unique' (1) have very different meanings. 
 
I was (am) interested how these matters vary between countries (or perhaps between states(?), in your case) and whether they are governed by statute or by professional bodies' rules. 
 
>Bronze used in sculpture casting is a copper 88-95% based alloy 
Is there a rule to that effect? 
 
Thanks, K.
