Description of a Trade Mark.

A paper label having printed thereon an oval-
shaped figure about three inches and one-tenth of an
inch long, measured longitudinally, and about two
and one-half inches broad, measured transversely,
with a border about three-tenths of an inch wide,
made by three lines printed in black running round
the figure; the ground between the outermost and
the middle of these lines being about one-tenth of an
inch wide and plain white, with the words "This
label is issued only by Bass and Company," in small
Roman capitals, about one-twentieth of an inch high,
printed in black thereon at the head of the figure;
and were a straight longitudinal line drawn across
the label at a trifling distance below the apex of the
triangle upon said label, and hereinafter mentioned,
the letter "T" of this said first word "This" would
be found to be on the left side of said line, and the
letter "Y" of the last word "Company" would be
found to be on the right side of the same line, and
the words "Brewers, Burton-upon-Trent," in small
Roman capitals as before, printed in black thereon at
the foot of the figure; and were a straight longitu-
dinal line drawn across such label immediately over
such last-mentioned words, it would measure about
one inch and seven-tenths of an inch, and small
circles in outline printed in black upon the spaces
between these several parcels of words, the circles on
the left side of such outer margin numbering twenty,
and the circles on the right side numbering nineteen;
the ground between the middle and the innermost
of these lines being a little less than two-tenths of an
inch wide, and shaded black by a number of right
lines drawn very close together, and radiating as it
were from the centre of the figure, and on this
ground, printed in black, a line of double loops
attached to each other running round it. The space
inside this border being also oval in shape, with a
white ground, is interlaced with figures coloured
pink, which figures consist of rows of figures about
two-tenths of an inch high, like balusters, supporting
very small hexagons drawn in outlines in pink run-
ning across the figure, and upon this ground the
words "Bass & Co.'s Pale Ale" in Roman capitals
about one quarter of an inch high, printed in black
round the head of this inner oval, and occupying
about one-half of its circumference; and immediately
below these words, in the upper part of this inner
oval, is contained a bright red triangular figure, the
base of which measures one inch and one quarter of
an inch, and each of the two sides measures one inch
and two-twelfths of an inch, and on this triangle at
its base, about the middle of this inner oval, trans-
versely, the words "Trade Mark" in small Roman
capitals, about one-sixteenth of an inch high, printed
in black, and immediately below this triangle, so as
together with the said words "Bass and Co.'s Pale
Ale" to enclose the triangle, a facsimile of a signa-
ture "Bass & Co.," written in the usual Italian style,
printed in black straight across the inner oval,
and under the letters "ass" of such signature
"Bass & Co." is printed in black a dash or stroke of
about half an inch in length.
