CLOSESerial 74299158 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: GAP (APPAREL), LLC
Class 003 - Cosmetics & Cleaning
Filed Jul 29, 1992
Registered Jul 19, 1994
The record shows the mark CLOSE is cancelled – it was registered on the Principal Register in July 1994 but the registration was cancelled on April 23 2005 because the owner did not file a required Section 8 declaration, and the file now carries a “dead · cancelled” status; the owner listed is GAP (APPAREL), LLC, a U.S. limited‑liability company. The registration covered only Class 3 cosmetics and cleaning products – specifically hair shampoo, shower gel, foam bath, body cream, skin lotion, perfumes, colognes and after‑bath body lotion – so a similar name used for those types of personal‑care items would create the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give GAP control over every possible use of the word “CLOSE” in other industries. No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal filing, allowance, registration and later cancellation steps. The latest meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation in 2005, and the supplied history shows no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan to market cosmetics or cleaning goods under a similar name, but the risk is far lower for unrelated product categories.

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.
