Stetson Intellectual Property Data

[Frunobulax]

I remember several years back when one branch of the Gallo family wanted to sell cheese and dairy products under the Gallo name. The wine making part of the family objected and the courts got involved. Eventually, the cheese side won the right to use the name Gallo, but the logos and look of the branding had to be different from the Gallo wine side. The cheese folks also couldn't sell wine or beverages under the Gallo name even with different branding. It’s similar to the dispute between Apple computers and Apple music.

Or John B. and Stephen L. Stetson.

Stetson Sport Lite originally filed in 1937. The earliest mention I could find were advertisements from 1936, which without an actual earliest use in commerce fits what we know we don’t know.

The text image is from the Vernon Daily Record, 1936
