THE FLOWERS OF AMERICASerial 73012003 · Supplemental Register
Dead · Expired
Owner: FRANKLIN MINT CORPORATION
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Jan 28, 1974
Registered Dec 23, 1975
The record shows that “THE FLOWERS OF AMERICA” is a dead registration on the Supplemental Register, owned by Franklin Mint Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation. The mark was registered on December 23, 1975 for fine art prints in the graphics field (class 016) and expired on September 30, 1996 because the owner did not renew it. The prosecution history indicates the mark was first accepted on May 4, 1981 under Section 8 (6‑year) and later expired under Section 9 in 1996. Because it is on the Supplemental Register, the mark was initially refused for descriptiveness and then amended to the Supplemental Register, meaning it is not considered distinctive enough for the Principal Register. The only visible enforcement signal is the expiration; no oppositions or cancellations appear in the supplied history. A similar name used for fine art prints or related graphics could raise the closest concern, but the record does not give the owner control over all uses of the wording. If you’re thinking of a similar name, be aware that the expired Supplemental registration still signals a prior claim in that narrow field.

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.
