Good Morning Mallory Levitt,
I am reviewing the above referenced applications for your client, Simon & Schuster, Inc. In review of these applications there is one issue that can be corrected without the need for an office action.
We require a disclaimer of the word “PRESS” in each of the marks because it is descriptive of applicant’s goods and services. The suggested disclaimer would read:
“No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “PRESS” apart from the mark as shown.”
Please let me know if you would approve of my adding the disclaimer as described for each application.
Please respond no later than 12 PM EST on Monday, February 25, 2019.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to call or e-mail me using the information provided in my signature block below. Thank you.
Sincerely,
/Rebecca D. Coughlan/
