BOOBIE BABOO

What this record means

The record shows that BOOBIE BABOO, owned by Donald R. Tattershall, was registered on the Principal Register in August 1981 but was cancelled on February 26 1988 because the registrant failed to file a required Section 8 declaration, so the mark is now dead. The registration covered only “Newspaper Feature or Other Printed Media Comprising the Caricature of a Female Baboon in Combination with a Quotation” in International Class 016, meaning the closest area of concern is any printed‑media content that uses that exact phrase together with the described caricature. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words BOOBIE BABOO in other contexts or product categories. No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply moves from publication for opposition in June 1981 to registration and then cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern only if your use involves similar printed‑media featuring that specific caricature; otherwise the risk is limited.
