Application of Gastown, Inc
Court of Customs and Patent Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
MARTIN, Judge.
This is an appeal from the decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, 133 USPQ 630, sustaining the refusal of the examiner to register “GASTOWN” as a service mark for “automobile and truck supply maintenance services.”
Appellant asserts that the mark is used by applying it to stationary pumps, globes, signs, and like displays associated with its services. Use since January 13, 1949, is alleged.
The examiner’s refusal of registration was based on the grounds that (a) the claimed services are not rendered in interstate commerce, and (b) “automobile and truck supply services”…
