A Sad Story from FL says Walt Disney Co. officials have until July 30 to decide whether to challenge the Genesee District Library\’s mascot for an alleged similarity to Mickey Mouse.
Last summer, the library submitted a trademark registry request with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office for \”Book Mouse,\” a blue, large-eared rodent wearing red-rimmed glasses and a backpack. Book Mouse appears on bumper stickers and in coloring books, and even marches in local parades.
Library attorney Patric Parker said \”I don\’t think we cut into their movie profits this last year.\”
