What this record means
The record shows that the mark “PUT YOUR STAMP ON IT” was abandoned by the United States Postal Service and is no longer live. The abandoned application was for the Principal Register and covered goods in class 016 such as postage stamps, stationery, stickers, envelopes, greeting cards, stamp‑collecting kits, educational curriculum guides, desk accessories, postcards, paper banners, stamp holders, and stamp albums. A similar name would raise the closest concern in this same class of paper goods and printed matter, especially items related to stamps and mail. The record does not give the Postal Service control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions and a final abandonment after no Statement of Use was filed. No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific goods listed remain a potential point of concern.
