GMASerial 74279291 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: MULLER MARTINI MAILROOM SYSTEMS, INC.
Class 007 -
Filed May 27, 1992
Registered Jan 26, 1993
The record shows that the “GMA” mark is cancelled, not live or pending, and was owned by Muller Martini Mailroom Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation; the cancellation occurred on November 1 2003 when the registrant failed to file a proper Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only one class—Class 007—for “devices for handling printed products; namely, newspaper insertion machines,” so a similar name used on anything outside that narrow equipment category would be the closest area of concern in the USPTO database. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the letters GMA, just the specific goods listed. There is no Supplemental Register entry, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal filing, publication, registration and later maintenance actions. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 lapse, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan a name for similar mailroom or printing hardware.
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.
