In 1892 the Jumeau firm challenged Danel in court for pirating the Jumeau design with the production of this doll. When Danel lost the lawsuit, Jumeau used the Paris Bebe Trademark for their own version with a character face. Danel's Paris Bebe and Jumeau Paris Bebe are marked the same, but the Danel Paris Bebe has the mark incised on the head, and the Jumeau Paris Bebe has the mark stamped in red (not incised).
