Scribner v. Straus, 210 U.S. 352 (1908), was a

statutory right to control the price of subsequent resales of lawfully purchased copies of their work.[1]

The court decided this case immediately after

Isador Straus and Nathan Straus, being accused of copyright infringement for the same reason by a different company.[2]
The result of Bobbs-Merrill Co. v. Straus held sway here.
