There is nothing that says that the license and author should not get lost. The obligation to provide author, licensing and copyright information exists when the work is distributed or published, not necessarily the whole time that it is in existence.

Agreed. If the license and attribution are provided to the poster- buyer, then we (as a content provider) and the printer (as a content distributor) have done our parts. We have facilitated the reuse of our content in accordance with the terms of the license.
Now, if the buyer goes and loses the license and authors the next day, that's their problem. The only exception being a poster intended for public display and/or the buyer wanting to redistribute it themselves, where the license/attribution would need to stay alongside it.
