TEST

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “TEST” is no longer live; it was registered on May 25 1915 and expired on January 5 1989 because the owner, RICE STIX DRY GOODS COMPANY, did not renew it. The registration covered clothing items such as men’s and boys’ overalls, jumpers, workpants, work‑shirts, work‑coats, and boys’ blouses under class 025. A similar name used for those or closely related apparel would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “TEST” in all contexts. The prosecution history shows only the initial registration and renewals; there is no Supplemental Register activity. The last meaningful event was the expiration in 1989, and no enforcement actions are recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the expired status means the mark no longer offers protection, but the specific apparel scope remains a potential point of caution.
