Please buy only officially licensed Betty Boop merchandise!

[Bikerbettyboop]

Since the holidays are fast approaching and more people are buying online, I'd like to remind Betty Boop 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.

I bought A Betty Boop nightshirt over the weekend at K-Mart and the first thing I looked for was wether or not it was an offical Betty Boop item and it was.

So is there any way I can tell if something I've bought secondhand, (without tags or info printed on it) is licensed or not?

Normally I prefer to buy the real deal, but if I come across something I really like but isn't the real thing I buy it anyway. ;-)

Betty Boop dolls with the date.
They may be from the 1930s.

Do you have a picture of the dolls? Boopman can probably give you an idea of their value.
