Actually, this is a copyright issue - the owner of a letter or notecard
owns the notecard or letter, and can do anything with it, but cannot
make copies of it - this is one of the questions we have in to Sotheby's
and one of the reasons we're waiting to start the collection.

Actually that's wrong. If you buy copyrighted material then you are allowed 
to make one personal copy for yourself. However if you own the copyright to 
it (which buying this card would also mean buying the copyright) means you 
can do whatever you want with it. Youc an sell copies or give them out. Well 
that's unless British law is entirely different than American. But, going by 
your rule JKR would not be able to make copies of her own books.
