Betty Boop is an animated cartoon character who first appeared in Talkcartoon and Betty Boop films and was featured in comic strips and mass merchandising
Betty’s caricature of a Jazz Age flapper had a th big tton, nd very t In med to n and rs in ra Bow t as being the model for Betty, she was actually a caricature of singer Helen Kane, who imitated the style of black singer Baby Ester Jones
Helen Kane had risen to fame in the late 1920s as "The BoopOop-A-Doop Girl", a star of stage, recordings, and films for Paramount When her career neared its end in 1931, Paramount began promoting the development of Betty Boop This led to Kane suing Paramount for infringement of her caricature The suit uncovered that not only did Kane use Jones’ singing style, but that even the signature line "boop-oop-a-doop" was created by Jones
Betty appealed to a juvenile audience as well as adults When the flapper/jazz era that Betty represented was replaced by the big bands of the swing era, Betty’s forays into that style were not successful The last Betty Boop cartoons were released in 1939 with a few attempts to bring Betty into the swing era
The rights to the "Betty Boop" character were not sold with the cartoons by Paramount, and the a trademark on the name (but not legitimately the likeness) of Betty Boop is owned by Fleischer Studios, with the merchandising rights to that name licensed to King Features Syndicate These merchandising rights are the most valuable of the Betty Boop properties

In 2010, Betty Boop became the official fantasy cheerleader for the United Football League She was also featured in merchandise targeted towards the league's female demographic
Everything Boop was designed and created: teapots, statues, bookmarks, dolls, handkerchiefs, towels, salt and pepper shakers, plates, playing cards, fake fingernails, watches, socks, ashtrays, keychains, bumper stickers, and dozens of figurines set under glass cloches They even merchandised three-D fold-out birthday greeting cards that read, “Happy Boop-oop-a-doop Birthday” I guess King Features Syndicate figured if it could be manufactured, Betty Boop could be featured on it My interest in things Boop was heightened by a collection I am selling for an estate in Carrollton for a man whose mother collected Betty Boop We opened three boxes of items, including lots of the statuettes of her under glass Watch the Howe Mercantile Facebook site for more info on this sale It should be, well, boop-oop-a-doop, The final auction for the Summit Gardens event venue will be held on May 4th, FOUNDERS DAY What a great way to celebrate the founding of our fair city and the opening of the church for events and celebrations Our goal is to raise $15,000 to pay off the final expenses of the restoration of Summit Gardens
