Versace, Porsche Design, and Tiffany... Oh My!

On my way to an evening MCLE/Dinner Meeting to hear about the recent U.S. Supreme Court tie in the matter of Omega v. Costco and their failure to clarify what to do about the copyright first sale doctrine, I did some window shopping in Beverly Hills, Calif. early last nite.

And lo and behold, of course, I walked pass a gamut of Designer retail stores, including Famous Brand Names and Trademarks, namely: Versace, Porsche Design, and Tiffany. With my trusty Nikon Coolpix, I snapped a photo of the front door of each of these established storefronts. Have a look:
