[E-trademarks] Portion of a title of a work as a source indicator

[Lara Pearson]

Title of a single work cannot function as a TM
<https://tmep.uspto.gov/RDMS/TMEP/current#/result/TMEP-1200d1e2517.html?q=title%20of%20a%20single%20work&ccb=on&ncb=off&icb=off&fcb=off&ver=current&syn=adj&results=compact&sort=relevance&cnt=10&index=2>.
For TM rights to exist, there must be a series. The specimen could contain
the mark on a single work, so long as the image depicts the 2nd or a
subsequent work in the series. That said, since the mark must be on at
least 2 works, I would submit images of both. More is better when it comes
to evidence of use, IMHO.
