Now I am picturing a artistically acclaimed but poor artist who tries to go crosstime to murder their rich sellout counterpart.

Note incidentally that as far as physical books go, it's a perfectly feasible (and the most likely) option to actually buy the books and ship them back for resale. You just have to pay a royalty to the local counterpart to the author.
I used something like this in my In Nomine Heavenly location The Money Laundry.
