For many years, the jacket design for Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary featured a bright red background. The front was dominated by a “bull’s-eye” logo. The center of the bull’s-eye was white with the title of the book in blue. Merriam-Webster registered this logo as a trademark. Random House published a dictionary with a red dust jacket, the title in large black and white letters, and Random House’s “house” logo—an angular drawing of a house—in white. What claim might MerriamWebster make against Random House? Would it be successful?
