BLACK SHEEPSerial 90773553 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: BELLWETHER MEDIA, LLC
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Jun 15, 2021
Registered Jun 28, 2022
The record shows that “BLACK SHEEP” is a live, Principal Register service mark owned by BELLWETHER MEDIA, LLC, a Minnesota limited‑liability company, and it has been registered since June 28 2022. The registration covers publishing books and e‑books specifically in the field of children’s books, which is class 041 education and entertainment; a similar name used for any other type of publishing or for unrelated goods would be farther from the scope shown here, but the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “black sheep.” The prosecution history shows a straightforward path to registration with no refusals or supplemental‑register amendments. The most recent meaningful event is the registration confirmation email on June 28 2022, and no opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the supplied history. I’d treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a children’s‑book publishing brand with a similar name.
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.
