Sec. 69h. Guaranty


(a) Avoidance of liability; requirements

    No person shall be guilty under section 69a of this title if he 
establishes a guaranty received in good faith signed by and containing 
the name and address of the person residing in the United States by whom 
the fur product or fur guaranteed was manufactured or from whom it was 
received, that said fur product is not misbranded or that said fur 
product or fur is not falsely advertised or invoiced under the 
provisions of this subchapter. Such guaranty shall be either (1) a 
separate guaranty specifically designating the fur product or fur 
guaranteed, in which case it may be on the invoice or other paper 
relating to such fur product or fur; or (2) a continuing guaranty filed 
with the Commission applicable to any fur product or fur handled by a 
guarantor, in such form as the Commission by rules and regulations may 
prescribe.

(b) Furnishing false guaranty

    It shall be unlawful for any person to furnish, with respect to any 
fur product or fur, a false guaranty (except a person relying upon a 
guaranty to the same effect received in good faith signed by and 
containing the name and address of the person residing in the United 
States by whom the fur product or fur guaranteed was manufactured or 
from whom it was received) with reason to believe the fur product or fur 
falsely guaranteed may be introduced, sold, transported, or distributed 
in commerce, and any person who violates the provisions of this 
subsection is guilty of an unfair method of competition, and an unfair 
or deceptive act or practice, in commerce within the meaning of the 
Federal Trade Commission Act [15 U.S.C. 41 et seq.].
