PAPER MOON

What this record means

The record shows that “PAPER MOON” is a live, registered mark on the Principal Register, owned by Fred M. Zax, an individual organized in California. The mark protects paper goods such as greeting cards, stationery, note pads, invitations and post cards, all first used in commerce on July 21 1982. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same category of paper products, especially items that look or function like greeting cards or stationery. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “paper” or “moon” in unrelated contexts. The latest maintenance event was the renewal of the registration, with the status date of October 23 2015. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so the record shows no visible enforcement activity. If you’re thinking of a comparable name for paper‑based products, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.
