: : : If I was going to start an invitation business, and I wanted to have a "Babies-R-Us" party invitation, is there a way to use their logo if I attribute it as a registered trademark?

: : : I feel like I've seen things that say "Babies-R-Us is a registered trademark of the .... corp."

: : : Thanks!

: : You look for trouble even if you have the right to do what you suggest. There has been a lot of expensive litigation on this subject.

: : There is also a new antidilution statute to be contended with.

: : Even if you have a right to do what you suggest, could you afford to fight if challenged?

: I agree with Arthur, Kelly, in that you could be playing with fire. Your best bet is probably the selection of another non-infringing mark.
