Review/Description: The Oregon Ducks blanket pictured above appeals to a specific niche of the consumers for this product who are looking for a fun University of Oregon blanket that embodies the fun spirit of the Donald Duck mascot. What many people don't realize is that long ago in order to make this University of OR Ducks blanket a reality Walt Disney himself met with the then athletic director of Eugene, OR based college to give his personal permission that is would be okay to use this Disney character as the school mascot without any trouble regarding copyright issues or trademark violations. Decades later after the passing of Walt Disney company representatives including lawyers approached the school to bring a case regarding the use of their original intellectual property. While the initial deal between Walt Disney himself and the school administration at the time was only sealed with a handshake as was customary in those times there was no legal documentation supporting the case of the college. Eventually a photograph of Walt and the AD of the school was found and that simple piece of evidence with Mr. Disney smiling and wearing a Ducks logo on his shirt were enough proof to put the issue to rest. Today a U of Oregon Ducks blanket like the one above is great seller especially for the children of parents that call the Eugene location their alma mater. For shoppers looking for a more customary University of Oregon Ducks blanket those individuals are encouraged to browse the selection below which offers a number of unique alternatives ranging from the very conventional to the far out groovy (specifically the tie-die option).
