This message is cross-posted to AUTOCAT and MAPS-L.
 
I am cataloging some tourist maps (Sydney at a glance, Jerusalem at a
glance, etc.) published by Kuperard (London) Ltd., which is named
prominently on the cover panels.  Each of the maps has a copyright
statement in small print in the legend with the name of another
company (Berndtson & Berndtson, mainly).
 
Would you make main entry for Kuperard, or would you regard the
copyright statement on the map as an indication of who is responsible for
the intellectual content of the map, and thus give that firm main entry?
 
Thanks in advance for your views!
 
Chuck
