THE CHRONIC LOS ANGELES

Description of Design Search

The mark consists of The word CHRONIC in a rectangular octagon that looks like the shape of a coffin, with a dot on each end of the word CHRONIC in the middle of the C. On each end of the rectangular octagon on the outside of the octagon is a fleur de lis steeple like shape that consists of a pointed center that bulbs at the tip with 2 petals on each side of the center, the one closest to the tip pointing at a 45 degree angle away from the stem and curving slightly back toward the center and then the one furthest from the tip cresting backward toward the base and nearly touching it. The pointed fleur de lis is pointing toward the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position respectively on the circle. The R in the word CHRONIC bisects the lower line of the rectangular octagon and breaks it in the center of the image. Beneath the word CHRONIC and the rectangular octagon are circular images, an outer circle with a border and where the circle is bisected by the rectangular octagon with the word CHRONIC and then a center section of the circle that has the word THE at the top half (or 12 o'clock position) of the circle with four three-tipped leaves pointing away from the top towards the C's in the word CHRONIC and the word Los Angeles on the bottom (the 6 o'clock position) of the circle with four three-tipped leaves pointing towards the C's in the word CHRONIC. The word THE is in the same font as the word CHRONIC. The word Los Angeles is in a script that is different than the font used in THE and CHRONIC. The letters in THE and CHRONIC appear capitalized whereas the letters in Los Angeles other than the L and A are smaller than the L.A. There is no other ornamentation in the outer circle besides the words and the leaves. In the inner circle are ornamental designs that originate in the center of each inner half circle and point towards the outer edges. In the top half of the circle is a ornamental design that looks like a fountain with a pointed steeple with a center point and then two curved petals or sprouts coming out of each side and then coming to a point, with a diamond beneath the bottom of the pointed steeple. Above the diamond and below the bottom of the steeple is a symmetrical ornamental design of waves that includes two cresting waves beneath the bottom of the steeple on each side and then waves going out from each crest with accenting ink marks. There are then straight lines coming from the wave design to the outer edge of the inner circle, of varying sizes, some continuous and some broken, for a total of 28 lines. On the bottom is a similar steeple and fountain design, but there is no diamond at the bottom, in place is the bottom of the R of the word CHRONIC. The bottom portion of the circle also has 28 lines (some broken) emanating from the design towards the outer edge of the inner circle. None of the lines emanating from the middle touch the edge of the circle or the fountain design.
