A: Yes. Licensing deals between trademark owners and third party products happen all the time. When we are doing these deals we first reach out to see if they have a licensing program. If so then get with the program. If not there is more negotiation required.

A: Non-exclusive license with the owner of the trademark is the starting point. If everything works out on paper between you and the owner of the trademark, then you may start to use the logo. Please do not sell merchandise with this logo without any license. There is no other way around this. Please check the below link on trademark licensing and recording at USPTO in the following page: https://affordabletrademarkattorney.com/trademark-faqs/record-trademark-assignment-at-uspto/
