How do you know that this is not the case? The rights to these murals in the town I live are owned at least in part by the city, the chamber of comerce and the local museum. They sell the postcards and prints.

What would stop Hallmark or some other corporate entity from just hijacking the proceeds of these images if the copyright was just thrown to the wind?

I think my previous statement is in complete agreement with this. : )
