RAY-BAN USA BY BAUSCH & LOMB

What this record means

The record shows that “RAY‑BAN USA BY BAUSCH & LOMB” is a cancelled Principal Register registration; the owner listed is Bausch & Lomb Incorporated and the cancellation was entered on June 26 1995 because the required Section 8 declaration was not filed. The registration covered only Class 025 clothing – specifically t‑shirts and sweatshirts – so a later use of the same wording on apparel would be the closest area of concern, while uses on unrelated goods would fall farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of “RAY‑BAN USA” in any category. This mark never appeared on the Supplemental Register, and the prosecution history simply moves from allowance to registration and then to cancellation. No oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 filing, or court actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand clothing with a similar name, because the cancelled registration still signals prior claim to that segment.
