Since the holidays are fast approaching and more people are buying online, I'd like to remind Betty Booip fans to Please buy only officially licensed Betty Boop merchandise.
Here's some things to watch out for:
Without authorization, it is illegal to sell or distribute any product using Betty Boop images from the official Betty Boop website, fan sites, licensee sites, scanned images and your own drawings of Betty Boop or licensed Betty Boop fabrics or other licensed items for resale. Unless the seller is a licensed manufacturer, they will not get authorization to do so.
Unauthorized Betty Boop products hurts the consumer. It also hurts the legitimate stores and online sites selling officially licensed Betty Boop products.
Nude Betty Boop - King Features Syndicate and Fleischer Studios, have never and will never authorize a nude Betty Boop product.
Iron-On Transfers - The are no licensees authorized to create these.
Stationery - Some consumers think it's okay to sell custom stationery with Betty Boop on their site or eBay. It's not. Only companies like Checks In The Mail are licensed to do so.
Cross-Stitching/Embroidery Patterns - Unless it comes from a major company, it's not authorized.
