a distinctive design, picture, emblem, logo or wording (or combination) affixed
to goods for sale to identify the manufacturer as the source of the product. Words
that merely name the maker (but without particular lettering) or a generic name
for the product are not trademarks. Trademarks may be registered with the U. S.
Patent Office to prove use and ownership. Use of another's trademark (or one that
is confusingly similar) is infringement and the basis for a lawsuit for damages
for unfair competition and/or a petition for an injunction against the use of the
infringing trademark.
