Trademarks and the DeLorean

NEW DeLorean Car

I checked for DeLorean trademarks on the US Patent and Trademark web site: http://www.uspto.gov . What I found was quite interesting!

A trademark search for "Delorean" produced five listings, three are registered trademarks, and two are abandoned.

• The logo for the DeLorean Owners Association is an active registered trademark.

• The "DMC" stylized logo (as used on the grill of the car) is an active registered trademark of The DeLorean Motor Company. It applies to automobiles and structural parts, and to automobile dealerships.

• The "Concours Delorean" stylized logo service mark is listed as abandoned. It applied to automobile shows, and was used by DeLorean One

• The stylized 'DELOREAN" logo in the characteristic DeLorean font (as used on the hood of my DeLorean) was listed, but has been abandoned (March 2003).  It was applied for (11/2000) by "Ephesians 6:12 Incorporated", a Nevada corporation with a business address at a post office box in Bedminster, NJ! The trademark is now (1/2004) registered to DeLorean Motor Company, Houston.

  Ephesians 6:12 claimed the trademark for use with cosmetics (perfume and after shave), eyeglasses, clothing, watches, and a litany of automobile categories, both complete cars and parts (from airbags to windows)! The application recognized that DELOREAN is the name of a living person, and that their "consent is of record." 

  The DeLorean Motor Company claims the logo for use on magazines, jewelry, watches, clothing, and fitted car covers. Their application is dated Dec 2003.

In case you forgot, or can't find your bible, the text (KJV) of Ephesians 6:12 is

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
