  Balsam ,

  Thanks for the reply! You said , "This is a brother and sister to so far as I know are active but they are no longer in bethel and are trying to support themselves by reprinting some of the old publications that do not have copyrights on them. I am not up on copyright law so I will offer no comment as to whether these publications that are being reprinted are still copyrighted.One of the publications offered by Watchtower Farms is "Faith on the March" As you will note,it was under copyright by Prentice-Hall in 1957.

  Rebel8,

  You said that this man and his wife are still living/working at Patterson. If this is true,I wonder whose printing presses they are using to make these reprints? My point in all of this is,if the WTS's presses are being used to make these reprints at a profit and a pre-specified price for most of the items offered,how would this affect their claim for as a charitable organization? The WTS went on the "voluntary donation" program to avoid being taxed,if I understand things correctly.

  Perhaps,the fact that these are older publications may have something to do with how the government looks at this. I don't know. Just wondering.

  hmmm..I was poking around on some older posts here on the board. I see that the link that Lady Lee was referring to has been removed from the freeminds website...would that have been an order brought down by the WBTS by legal means? What did it say? Any alternative links?
