EARLY OFFICE MUSEUM LOBBY IMPORTANT NOTICE: Photos that are the property of the Early Office Museum have been "pinned" on Pinterest.com. No one has asked for permission to post our copyrighted photos on the Pinterest website, and we have given no one permission to do so. Indeed, we explicitly deny permission to both "pinners" and Pinterest to do so and we objectto their doing so.
For more than 15 years, one person has been entirely responsible for the Early Office Museum website. This person has spent countless hours and dollars to create a website that is educational and useful to collectors. Every day we answer questions about early offices and antique office machines from collectors, movie producers, exhibitors, and museums around the world. The action of Pinterest in posting our photos has substantially damaged our property and reduced our incentive to continue the online Early Office Museum. Also, during the time that we are forced to litigate with Pinterest to protect our work and viewership, we do not have time to continue improving the Museum website. Therefore, while Pinterest persists in posting our photos, all further work and investment to improve the Early Office Museum website has been suspended. Anything you can do to help isappreciated.
