Pen and ink sketch by Thomas E. Mails (now dead), appearing in 1972.
Serigraph signed and sold by Professor Ward Churchill in 1981.
This story was first broken by CBS4 Denver. Churchill claimed that it was made clear when he sold it that the print was based on Mails' work, but this looks very, very fishy to me, especially in light of the fact that he became violent and defensive when first confronted with the allegation. I've seen this on tape.
This is apparently not the first time Churchill has been accused of plagiarism.
I have not read "On the Justice of Roosting Chickens," where, I believe Churchill made the infamous "Little Eichmann" quote. But here is an interesting take on it by Anthony Lappe.
