JBR Software (or: JBS)
On the Dafont site, we find Peanuts Gang Dings (2005), Rat Finkbats (2005) and Snoopy Dings (2005). These fonts appear to be copied, with the copyright changed to JBS and/or JBR. For example, Rich Roat of House Industries has this to say: I wanted to point out that the "Rat Finkbats" are directly taken from our "Rat Fink Fonts". These are highly detailed illustrations done by Ken Barber in 1996 and are sold as part of the Rat Fink Font collection. Part of the proceeds from each sale go to the estate of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth. Credit for the Finkbats should go to Ken Barber and, well, the Snoopy dings maybe should go to Charles Schultz. [...] We licensed the names "Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth", "Rat Fink" and "Fink Fonts" directly from Ed Roth in 1995 for this and some other projects. Ken drew those icons specifically for the "Fink Fonts" and they are called the "Monster Icons". We pay a quarterly licensing fee to the estate of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth based on the sales of the Rat Fink fonts. So, please, for the originals, consider House Industries' Rat Finkbats. |
