Lawyer: Whoever uses 1928 Mickey image in NFT must clarify not affiliated with Disney
According to Cointelegraph, lawyer Oscar Franklin Tan said that people cannot use the "Steamboat Willie" version of Mickey Mouse to make anyone think their work is related to Disney.He added: "Under US law, only the specific description of Mickey Mouse in 1928 is in the public domain. Mickey Mouse was a more terrifying black and white character with a longer nose and no gloves. The Mickey Mouse trademark and brand are separate from the character and still private. You cannot suddenly produce your own Mickey products. The NFT you see is specifically called 'Steamboat Willie' and clearly refers to the 1928 version, even if his T-shirt says 'Mickey'. Anyone using the 1928 version of Mickey Mouse needs to make it clear that their creation or product is not related to the trademark owner Disney."When asked about using the 1928 version of Mickey Mouse in NFTs, the lawyer said that anyone using the image must clarify that they are not associated with Disney.
