ORSON'S PLACESerial 73613420 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Aug 07, 1986
Registered Mar 03, 1987
The record shows that ORSON'S PLACE was registered on the Principal Register to United Feature Syndicate, Inc. but the registration was cancelled on September 6 1993 because the owner failed to file a proper Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead and not enforceable as a live registration. The only listed goods are “syndicated comic strip” in International Class 016 (paper goods and printed matter), meaning a later use of the same wording would most closely clash with comic‑strip publishing or related printed material. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Orson’s Place” in other industries. The prosecution history simply notes the normal steps—approval, publication for opposition, registration, and the later Section 8 cancellation—without any supplemental‑register activity. No oppositions, cancellations, or court actions appear in the file, so there is no visible enforcement signal. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a comic‑strip or similar printed product under the same name, but the risk is far lower for unrelated goods or services.
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.
