From THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993) [devils]:
REPLICA, noun A reproduction of a work of art, by the artist that made
the original. It is so called to distinguish it from a "copy," which
is made by another artist. When the two are mae with equal skill the
replica is the more valuable, for it is supposed to be more beautiful
than it looks.
