BTW, if Patrick M. is telling the truth today, he let Mossay sell the his fake picture copyright on his behalf for over 21 years and is therefore he is a thief. My publisher bought it in 1997, and it was rather expensive. If he is lying now, he is also dishonest, of course. So, I suggest caution.

PM : No, I never earned anything at the time nor today. There's certainly the photographer of that time, M. Mosay, to whom I lent the slide who, maybe, has earned something, but me, no. Except for the exchange of my camera that I was asked to lend for analysis and, quite some time after, when I wanted to get it back, I was proposed to exchange from a slightly better one. I agreed. By curiosity, I'd like to know if someone earned something with my photo and how much.

The latter [Guy Mossay] realized the advantage he could possibly draw from it and acquired the contractual rights of media exploitation of the document.
