PUBLICATION AND ISSUE SECTION
Mark description
The mark consists of a stylized skull with a mustache and goatee wearing a monocle and top hat. An ace of spades playing card and a second playing card are tucked into the ribbon of the top hat. Behind the skull design is a contrasting circle placed within three concentric rings with the second ring contrasting with the first and the third ring. The stylized wording "THE WICKED BEAN" appears curved within the top half of the second ring with the stylized wording "..BECAUSE LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR BAD COFFEE" appearing curved within the bottom half of the second ring. A fourth ring located exterior of the third ring merely represents background or outlining and is not part of the mark.
