Live · Registered
Owner: PINKERTON TOBACCO CO. LP
Class 034 -
Filed Jul 24, 1968
Registered May 13, 1969
The record shows that the mark “APPLE” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 72303482, owned by PINKERTON TOBACCO CO. LP, a Delaware limited partnership. It covers chewing tobacco (class 034) and was first used in commerce on Oct 26 1905. A similar name would raise the closest concern for products or services that involve chewing tobacco or related tobacco goods. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “APPLE” in other industries. The prosecution history shows no supplemental register activity; the mark was accepted and granted on the Principal Register without a descriptiveness refusal. The latest maintenance event was the fourth 10‑year renewal on Apr 16 2019, keeping the registration active. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active registration in the tobacco class suggests a meaningful risk of conflict if the new use is in the same or a closely related category.

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.
