WORDCRAFT
Dead · Expired DEAD/REGISTRATION/ExpiredWhat this record means
The record shows that WORDCRAFT, owned by VOCAB INCORPORATED, was registered on the Principal Register (Reg. 905079) but is now dead and expired because the registration was not renewed, with the last status change recorded on Nov 4 1992. The registration covered educational word puzzles (class 028), phonograph records and pre‑recorded tapes for educational use (class 009), and study booklets (class 016), so a similar name used for any of those types of educational materials would create the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give VOCAB INCORPORATED control over every possible use of the word “WORDCRAFT,” especially outside the listed educational goods. There is no Supplemental Register filing or descriptiveness refusal shown in the prosecution history; the only notable event is the expiration notice in 1992. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use a similar name for educational puzzles, recordings or booklets, but the risk is far lower for unrelated products.
