What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MOONVILLE STUDIOS” is no longer active; it was cancelled on July 10 2010 because the owner, James Snively, failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on the Principal Register in December 2009 for class 016, covering paper goods such as greeting cards, stationery, posters, calendars, postcards, and books in the self‑help and general reference fields. A similar name would raise the closest concern in that same class of paper‑based printed items. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a straightforward allowance and registration process with no Supplemental Register steps. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history. For someone looking to use a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the specific goods listed still present a potential concern if used in the same category.
