WELLS FARGOSerial 72421364 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Apr 14, 1972
Registered Feb 28, 1984
The record shows that the mark “WELLS FARGO” is no longer active; it was cancelled on December 4, 2004 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is WELLS FARGO & COMPANY, a Delaware corporation. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 016, covering reports, catalogs, and printed announcements in the pyrotronics, chemical, and protective service fields. A similar name used in those exact goods would raise the closest concern, while use in unrelated areas would be farther from the scope shown. The cancellation means the mark no longer controls any use of the wording. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially registered, then cancelled; no supplemental register activity is involved. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 2004, and no enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful concern if the name is used for similar printed materials, but it does not block all uses of the term.

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.
