Description

Timely Comics Trademark Application and Registration for "All Select Comics" (May 8, 1946). The first of these two documents shows that the United States Patent Office has granted registration of a trademark to "Daring Comics Inc." The second is the application for a trademark for "the accompanying drawing," the logo shown here for "All Select Comics." Furthermore the application also says that "The trade-mark has been continuously used and applied to said goods in applicant's business since June, 1943."

The logo shown is indeed the one used for the series, though May 1946 certainly seems an odd time to apply for the trademark, as only one more issue (#11) of the series was published after this time! While we know the firm as Timely, they published under more than 50 different names over the years, and "Daring Comics" was this series' publisher of record. These two pages and a third blank page are ribbon-bound and measure 8" by 12".
