The Georgia Grind: Can the Common Law Accommodate the Problems of Title in the Art World: Observations on a Recent Case.
Ward, Nicholas D.
Journal of College and University Law, v8 n4 p533-61 1981-82

The statute of limitations was not held to begin until the owner reasonably knows of the possessor's identity. (MSE)
