Ostermoor & Co. v. John A. Schwarz, Inc.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit
Ostermoor & Co. v. John A. Schwarz, Inc., 12 F.2d 847 (D.C. Cir. 1926)
56 App. D.C. 312; 1926 U.S. App. LEXIS 3394
Ostermoor & Co. v. John A. Schwarz, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
Appeal from concurrent decisions of the tribunals of the Patent Office in a trade-mark opposition proceeding, dismissing the opposition.
We agree with the Patent Office that the picture of a mattress, involved in the marks upon which the opposition is based and in applicant’s mark, is publici juris, and therefore may be incorporated in applicant’s composite mark. See Ostermoor & Co. v. Rose Spring & Mattress Co., 55 App. D. C. 307, 5 F.(2d) 268.
The decision is affirmed.
