Scope and Content: Under MGLA c 110B, s 2, any person who adopts and uses a trademark or label may file an application for its registration with the Commonwealth.  The state secretary’s office has held the responsibility for registration since the 19th century.  In the 1930s it was placed within the secretary’s Corporation Division (now known as the Corporations Division).  As part of the registration process, applicants are required to supply the division with facsimiles or copies of labels or trademarks in question.  Volumes in this series include samples of labels, trademarks, stamps, and forms of advertisement affixed to pages in order of registration.
