Gummi/Gummy Bears (1982/1983)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

   There is some interest in "gummi/gummy bears" for the 100th anniversary of the "teddy bear."  "Gummy bear" goes back to just 3 July 1982 on the NEW YORK TIMES database.  Below are some trademarks.
   I'll probably go back to the Library of Congress on Monday to check on "jelly bean" and other stuff.  Has anyone looked at CONFECTIONARY TRADE MARKS (1910) by Mida's trade-mark bureau of Chicago?
