The Winnie the Pooh books by A. A. Milne are no longer under copyright, that copyright expired. However, the Disney animations of Winnie the Pooh are still under copyright, and they have a distinctive style compared to the illustrations in the books. It's mainly about copyright, not trademarks.


Yes they is also true but the point of the comment was the M&M/Disney case is a trademark issue.


All things considered, I prefer the original illustrations myself.
