"Never published because of potential copyright troubles."

What a bunch of malarchy.. why are people so paranoid.
Projects like that are clearly protected under artistic expression... do you think Any Warhol had to pay royalties to Cambell's soup? NO!

I'm not sure about the laws for that but I'd probably lean toward Campbell's making a choice not to sue seeing as though it was free advertising and a suit could hurt their image. The same could be said for this poster if it was sold.

People are paranoid because lawyers are expensive. That's the one huge hole in fair use... you can be absolutely in the right, but if your opponent has deep pockets, you'll end up bankrupted by a lawsuit even if you win.
