PAPERBACK PRODUCTIONS

What this record means

The record shows that “PAPERBACK PRODUCTIONS” is a cancelled Principal Register service mark owned by Shea Hardiman, an individual, and the registration was cancelled on Dec 3 2021 because the required Section 8 declaration was not filed. The mark was limited to class 041 “Education & Entertainment” covering “Photography and video production services” first used May 13 2013, so a similar name used for those same services would present the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “paperback” or “productions” in unrelated fields, and it never appeared on the Supplemental Register, so there is no supplemental‑register sequence to note. The most recent meaningful event is the Section 8 cancellation notice in December 2021, and no further dates are listed. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 action, or court filings, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a moderate concern if you plan photography or video production services under a similar name.
