WELLS FARGOSerial 73496090 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: TECHNA ENTERPRISES, INC.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Aug 23, 1984
The record shows that the mark “WELLS FARGO” is dead and was abandoned by its owner, Techna Enterprises, Inc., a Texas corporation. The abandoned application covered the specific goods of a hand‑held treasure finder, namely an electronic metal detector, under class 009. Because the mark was never registered, it does not grant control over the wording in any broader context. The prosecution history indicates that the applicant failed to respond to a final refusal, leading to abandonment on May 16, 1986. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the closest concern would arise if the new use involved electronic metal detectors or related electrical and scientific apparatus. Otherwise, the record suggests a lower risk, but it does not eliminate the possibility of future claims or other unrecorded rights.

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.
