Dear <<RECIPIENT_SALUTATION>>,
I'm Lindsey, the principal at Hook And Eye Co. — a costume and garment shop in Austin, Texas. We built the <<COSTUME_OR_CHARACTER_BUILD_DESCRIPTION>> for <<WEARER_OR_CLIENT>>, based on the character <<CHARACTER_NAME>> from <<PROPERTY_OR_TITLE>>. The build was completed in <<YEAR_OR_DATE>> for <<EVENT_CONVENTION_OR_OCCASION>>.
I'm writing to ask your permission to display <<IP_HOLDER_LEGAL_NAME>>'s logo and name in Hook And Eye Co.'s "Work for" partner-credentials section — a small social-proof row on our website (and corresponding sections in print marketing) that names the brands and properties we've built work for. The intent is past-work documentation: showing prospective clients which IP holders' work we've contributed to as a custom build vendor, not suggesting any current or ongoing formal affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, licensing, or partnership.
The logo and name would appear in the following places, all of them past-work documentation and none of them suggesting any active brand-partnership or product-licensing arrangement:
- "Work for" partner-credentials row on our website at <<HOOK_AND_EYE_WEBSITE_URL>>
- The corresponding project page describing the build (linked from the partner-credentials row)
- Print marketing materials — brochures, exhibition or trade-show panels, presentation decks for prospective clients
In every appearance where the logo is displayed, we commit to the following:
- No suggestion of affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement: the logo will appear only in clear past-work documentation context, never in product packaging, advertising, or partnership claims.
- No merchandising: we won't sell prints, posters, t-shirts, or any other product carrying your logo or marks.
- Past-work scope only: the logo appears in connection with the specific past project named above, not as a general "current partner" or "preferred vendor" claim.
- Attribution language: if you have preferred attribution wording, logo specifications, color guidelines, or trademark notice requirements, we'll follow them exactly.
Separately, if you'd be willing, we'd also welcome permission to display photographs of the finished build in the same past-work context — but the logo ask above is our primary request; if the photographs aren't possible we can still document the partnership through the logo alone.
This permission would be non-exclusive, would not transfer or impair any of your rights in your logo, marks, or underlying property, and would remain in effect until you ask us to retire the display — in which case we'd remove your logo and name from forward-going use within thirty days of your written request.
If this works for you, a brief written confirmation by reply email or signature on the line below is all we need. If your office prefers a more formal licensing arrangement or a different framing entirely, I'd welcome the conversation.
Thank you for considering this — and for making the work that gave this costume its source.
Sincerely,
Lindsey Rae
Hook And Eye Co.
