It’s a fairly light week for new marks; fewer than 800 across both registers! To contrast, it’s a strangely heavy day for cancellations, with over 400 marks (usually it’s 200 or fewer)! I wonder if the USPTO is cleaning house; the majority of these cancellations are marks from the ’70s and ’80s, predating when registrations had to upload an image as the “drawing”. A lot of them are also known brands or properties like DORITOS, LIFE SAVERS, and MISS UNIVERSE, which you wouldn’t use anyway, so I’m not including them in the bottom list.
