Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus

Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Oct 23, 1996
The record shows the mark MISS is dead, having been abandoned on June 18 1999 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action; the owner listed is Playboy Enterprises, Inc. The abandoned application covered pre‑recorded videotapes featuring female models (class 009), a monthly feature in men’s entertainment magazines, cards and calendars with pictures and text of a female model (class 016), and an on‑line service with images and text of a female model for adult entertainment (class 041). A similar name used in any of those specific contexts would present the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside those areas are farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give Playboy control over every possible use of the word “MISS.” No supplemental‑register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks examiner assignments and a non‑final action before the abandonment. The supplied history contains no visible enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name tied to adult‑oriented video, print, or online content.
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.
