Section 335. Inserting unauthorized advertisement in newspapers and magazines  


Latest version.
  • Any person who, with intent to profit, directly or indirectly
      thereby, places or causes or produces an advertisement to be  placed  in
      or  affixes  or causes the same to be affixed to a newspaper without the
      consent  of  the  publisher  of  said  newspaper;  or  who  directly  or
      indirectly places or causes or procures an advertisement to be placed in
      or  affixes or causes the same to be affixed to a magazine or periodical
      without the consent of the publisher of such magazine or periodical, and
      in a way calculated to lead the readers thereof  to  believe  that  such
      advertisement   was  circulated  by  such  publisher,  is  guilty  of  a
      misdemeanor.
        The placing of an advertisement,  notice,  circular,  pamphlet,  card,
      hand  bill,  printed  notice of any kind in or the affixing thereof to a
      newspaper, magazine, or periodical  is  presumptive  evidence  that  the
      person  or  persons  or  corporation or corporations whose name or names
      appear thereon as proprietor, advertiser, vendor, or exhibitor, or whose
      goods, wares, and merchandise are advertised therein, caused or procured
      the same to be so placed or affixed with intent to profit thereby.
