335 - Inserting Unauthorized Advertisement in Newspapers and Magazines.

ยง 335. Inserting unauthorized advertisement in newspapers and
magazines. 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.
