From THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993) [devils]:

  REPLICA, n.  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.
