Description

Timely Comics Trademark Application and Registration for "Millie the Model" (May 8, 1946). The first of these documents shows that the United States Patent Office has granted registration of a trademark to "Cornell Publishing Corp., its successors or assigns" (this is one of the many names Timely published under). The second is the application for a trademark for the title for a "magazine or publication published periodically," "Millie the Model." Furthermore the application also says that "The trade-mark has been continuously used and applied to said goods in applicant's business since July, 1945." These two pages and a third blank page are ribbon-bound and measure 8" by 12".

Note that while Millie's first issue had appeared back in 1945, this was filed during the long interim between her first and second issues (#2 is cover-dated October 1946).
