As the decision of In re Zahn, 617 F. 2d 261, 204 USPQ 988 (CCPA 1980), holds that an ornamental design may be embodied in less than a complete article, it is understood that the surface(s)or portion(s)of the article that would normally be visible but are not shown in the drawing or described in the specification of the present application form(s)no part of the claimed design. Therefore, the determination of the patentability of the claimed design is based on the views of the article shown in the drawing and the description in the specification.
