Excited by the collaboration between his favorite designer and a major art seller, Jaborwhalky congratulated the artist. It turned out, however, that Bob Basset never listed any of their works at Design Toscano, so the item had clearly been made from a stolen Bob Basset design.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Text\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Jaborwhalky wrote about it on Cory Doctorow\u2019s blog Boing Boing, and soon the news reached the management of Design Toscano. In an official letter, the company explained that the work\u2019s author was a new sculptor with whom they had not dealt previously and were not going to deal in the future. Design Toscano President Mike Stopka and Bob Basset have come to an agreement, whereby the Ukrainian designer\u2019s authorship be restored and the studio be reimbursed for the inconvenience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Text\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Bob Basset thanks Jaborwhalky, Cory Doctorow, and their many fans for bringing this situation to light, and Design Toscano for their straightforward and laudable approach to copyright issues.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On December 18, 2012, a blogger known as Jaborwhalky, a big fan of Bob Basset products and a regular customer of the online store Design Toscano, came upon an item by the Ukrainian studio listed at the website. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":456,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"link","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[755,753],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/798"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=798"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/798\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":800,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/798\/revisions\/800"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=798"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=798"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
