Julius R. Lunsford Jr., a pioneering intellectual property lawyer who first registered the trademark for the Coca-Cola hourglass bottle, died Monday after an extended illness. Lunsford's first job, says his son, was as a "trade examiner."

If the drink wasn't really Coca-Cola, Lunsford prosecuted the ensuing unfair competition case.
