PERCY
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the “PERCY” mark is cancelled, not live, and was once owned by Russ Berrie and Company, Inc., a New Jersey corporation; the cancellation occurred on July 13 1989 because the registrant failed to file a proper Section 8 declaration. The registration covered only Class 016 – greeting cards – so the closest area of concern would be any new greeting‑card line that uses “PERCY.” The record does not give the owner any blanket control over the word in other product categories or services. This was a Principal Register registration, and the prosecution history simply moves from filing in May 1982 through registration in February 1983 to the Section 8 cancellation in 1989; there is no supplemental‑register step to note. No oppositions, cancellations by a third party, or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan a greeting‑card brand with the same name, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods.
