BACK TO EARTH SAUNA BOARDS

What this record means

The record shows the mark BACK TO EARTH SAUNA BOARDS is cancelled; the registration was voided on July 26, 2003 because the owner, Back Two Earth (a partnership organized in Maine), did not file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, and the USPTO marked the status as “dead · cancelled.” The only goods listed are “boards designed to support the back of individuals while in a sauna” in International Class 020, so a similar name used for sauna‑related back‑support boards would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “back,” “earth,” or “sauna” in other contexts. This was a Principal Register registration, not a Supplemental Register filing, and the prosecution history shows the usual allowance and statement‑of‑use steps before the eventual cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market back‑support boards for saunas under a comparable name.
