TBSSerial 72114896 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Westinghouse Electric Corporation
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Mar 03, 1961
Registered Mar 13, 1962
The record shows that the mark “TBS” was once registered on the Principal Register by Westinghouse Electric Corporation but was cancelled on December 14, 2002 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered electrical measuring instruments for measuring electrical quantities in class 009. A new name that is very similar to “TBS” and that is used for electrical measuring instruments would raise the closest record‑based concern, while use in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The cancellation means the mark no longer gives the owner exclusive rights, but it does not erase the fact that the mark was once protected for those specific goods. The prosecution history shows the mark was first registered in 1962, renewed in 1982, and finally cancelled in 2002. No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations after publication appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful concern if the new use involves electrical measuring instruments, but the risk is lower for unrelated products.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
