Description

FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a toothbrush feature showing our new design; and,

FIG. 2 is a bottom, front, left side perspective view thereof.

The claim is bound by the inner, continuous, solid edge and the surface shading immediately surrounding the outer continuous edge. The broken lines shown on the continuous surface represent boundaries while the broken lines showing the remainder of the toothbrush illustrate the environment in which the design resides. None of the broken lines form part of the claimed design.

Claims

We claim the ornamental design for a toothbrush feature, as shown and described.
