As far as I can tell, there are six Mark Drawing Codes that the PTO classifies submitted drawings:

(1) TYPED DRAWING(2) DESIGN ONLY(3) DESIGN PLUS WORDS, LETTERS, AND/OR NUMBERS(4) STANDARD CHARACTER MARK(5) WORDS, LETTERS, AND/OR NUMBERS IN STYLIZED FORM(6) FOR SITUATIONS FOR WHICH NO DRAWING IS POSSIBLE, SUCH AS SOUND

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As far as I can tell, there are six Mark Drawing Codes that the PTO classifies submitted drawings:</p>
<div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><br />
<blockquote><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">(1) TYPED DRAWING</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">(2) DESIGN ONLY</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">(3) DESIGN PLUS WORDS, LETTERS, AND/OR NUMBERS</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">(4) STANDARD CHARACTER MARK</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">(5) WORDS, LETTERS, AND/OR NUMBERS IN STYLIZED FORM</span><br /><span style="font-family:Arial;">(6) FOR SITUATIONS FOR WHICH NO DRAWING IS POSSIBLE, SUCH AS SOUND</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p></span></div>
<p>Number 6 is an interesting code. The search <span style="font-weight:bold;">(6)[md]</span> pulls up a surprisingly low 317 records. But it does turn up some familiar tones, such as the registrations for the <a href="http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&amp;entry=75332744">Intel chimes</a>, which &#8220;consists of a five tone audio progression of the notes D FLAT, D FLAT, G, D FLAT and A FLAT,&#8221; and the <a href="http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&amp;entry=75676156">ESPN chimes</a>, which &#8220;consists of the following six musical notes played in a fast tempo: &#8220;D, C sharp, D, D, C sharp, D&#8221;.&#8221;</p>
<p>I expect that the popularity of ring tones may vary well increase the number of marks with the No. 6 mark drawing code. Here&#8217;s two ring tone applications: <a href="http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&amp;entry=78654199">the sound of a childlike human giggle</a> and <a href="http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&amp;entry=78843863">THE SOUND OF A GOLF CLUB HITTING A GOLF BALL, THE SOUND OF THE GOLF BALL LANDING ON A PUTTING GREEN, AND THE SOUND OF THE GOLF BALL FALLING INTO THE CUP</a>.</p>
