AFTONSerial 72388978 · Principal Register
Dead · Expired
Owner: STANDARD PAPER MANUFACTURING COMPANY
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Apr 12, 1971
Registered May 09, 1972
The record shows that AFTON is a dead Principal Register registration that was owned by Standard Paper Manufacturing Company, a Virginia corporation, and it expired because the registration was not renewed, with the last status change recorded on February 15 1993. The registration covered only “TEXT AND COVER PAPER” in International Class 016, so a later user of the name AFTON in the paper‑goods arena would encounter the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the word AFTON, just the specific paper goods listed. Because the mark was never placed on the Supplemental Register, there is no examination sequence to explain. The history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signal appears. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market paper products under the same name.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
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.
