We received the following email from Thomas Cunning on July 12, 2010:

My family used to own the West End pottery. I have enclosed some pictures from our family album of the pottery. They were taken by my father, William James Cunning, in the thirties. He worked for his father, Burgess Cunning, at the pottery until it folded in the late 1930s. My brother, William James Cunning Jr., and I have other historic items including letters from the 1870s when our relatives were on the glass boat, Mary Ann, selling pottery down the Mississippi River to New Orleans and pictures of Gustavu Pepin an early mayor of East Liverpool. The boat Mary Ann's bell currently in the East Liverpool Episcopal Church downtown.

Regular linking, i.e. providing the URL of the East Liverpool Historical Society web site for viewers to click on and be taken to the East Liverpool Historical Society entry portal or to any specific article on the website is legally permitted.
 
Hyperlinking, or as it is also called framing, without permission is not permitted.
 
Legally speaking framing is still in a murky area of the law though there have been court cases in which framing has been seen as violation of copyright law. Many cases that were taken to court ended up settling out-of-court with the one doing the framing agreeing to cease framing and to just use a regular link to the other site.
 
The East Liverpool Historical Society pays fees to keep their site online. A person framing the Society site is effectively presenting the entire East Liverpool Historical Society web site as his own site and doing it at no cost to himself, i.e. stealing the site.
 
The East Liverpool Historical Society reserves the right to charge such an individual a fee for the use of the Society’s material.
