American Greetings, MGM ink licensing deal

CLEVELAND Greeting card recipients may soon encounter Inspector Jacques Clouseau.

American Greetings and MGM Consumer Products announced an agreement Monday that will allow the greeting-card maker to use images from MGM films on its products.

Classic films such as “The Pink Panther” series, starring Peter Sellers as the klutzy Clouseau, “Rocky” and “Dances with Wolves” are among the films to which American Greetings will have access, along with newer movies such as “Legally Blonde.”

MGM’s library of films comprises 4,100 titles, making it the world’s largest.
