Dieser Tage wird über eine Markenanmeldung von Ex-Beatle Paul McCartney berichtet (z.B. beim ORF), der das Kennzeichen McCartney im Lebensmittel- und Bekleidungsbereich eintragen lässt.
Eigentlich ja nicht ungewöhnlich, dass sich Prominente ihren Namen schützen lassen, insbesondere um eine unautorisierte Nutzung von dritter Seite einfacher sanktionieren zu können.
Die aktuellen Markenanmeldungen sind auch beleibe nicht die ersten McCartney Marken. Nachfolgend eine Aufstellung der McCartney Marken aus den Beständen des britischen, deutschen europäischen (HABM) und internationalen (WIPO) Markenregister.
