Uncursed by the heartbreak of originality

Is it the adperson's worst nightmare to pitch a new line to a client only to find it's being used by their archrival? That's what Timothy R V Foster thought, so he started a database called ADSlogans
Unlimited.
It must be working. Every one of the top-10 London agencies checks proposed lines with him before the big spend.
Now, each week, as a public service, ADLAND features Tim's selection of DUPLICLAIMS from the ADSlogans Unlimited database.
If you know of any other users of this week's lines, please do not hesitate to mail Chief SloganMaven Timothy R V Foster.

I was -as usual- minding my own BeesWax when a mail popped in for the commercial-archive It began with the Subject "a word of caution" which aroused my curiosity and continued: I assume that you have clearances from SAG and AFTRA where applicable for the commercials you are showing on your site.

The U.S. mint recently launched a national ad campaign to announce the production
of the Golden Dollar coin. Featuring a modernized George Washington as the spokesperson,
the U.S. mint's ad campaign relies on the good looks of the founding father to promote
the new addition to the nation's money supply.

It's hasta la vista baby for future web viewings of a Japanese DirectTV commercial
starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's being terminated by lawyers for the action
star and the satellite entertainment company. However since Zero One Design's
Gaijin a Go Go site
has until until August 10 to cease and desist before facing legal action, you
can see the spot by taking action now.

Paul Malmström reveals what I already suspected. The films were removed from the rubberburner.com and borntodestroy.com sites as they were taking up too much bandwidth.
'I guess Lee didn't really expect that it would take off the way it did.' says Paul Malmström one half of the creative team behind these ads, the other half being Linus Karlsson.
Thousands and more thousands have visited the sites over the past week.
'We actually shot the films for the sites during our lunchbreak at the shoot of the BuddyLee commercials in London. Then that night, we went home and made "crap" homepages for them.'
