MARLBOROSerial 81010391 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Bangor Punta Operations, Inc.
Class 012 -
Filed
Registered May 13, 1975
The record shows that the mark “MARLBORO” is no longer active; it was cancelled on October 6, 1981 because the registrant, Bangor Punta Operations, Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark was registered on May 13, 1975 in the Principal Register, but the only goods listed were “No Description Entered” under class 012, so the record does not specify any particular products or services. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the owner no longer holds enforceable rights under this filing, and the record does not indicate any subsequent enforcement actions such as oppositions or court proceedings. The closest concern for a new name would arise if the new use involved goods that could be reasonably associated with the broad, unspecified class 012, but the absence of a detailed description means the record’s scope is very narrow. Since the supplied history shows no enforcement activity, the record suggests a low risk for a similar name, though it does not guarantee freedom to use the wording in all contexts.

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.
