COMBINATION GARE-BOARD.
The Schedule xefen'ed to in these Letten Patent and malng part of the same.
in Blocks; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact descriptionthereof, reference being had to theaccornpanying drawing making av part of this specification, in which Y Figure l represents a draughts or clrecker-board;
Figur'e 2 represents a backgammon-board;
Figure 3 represents a fox-and-geese board;
Figure 4 represents a thirty-one game board;
Figure-5 represents a mill or twelve-meri Morris game board; and e Figure 6 represents a Cribbage-board, all of which are formed by our improved blocks.
Letters of like name and kind referto like parts in eac-l1 of the figures. l
A large number of games, now popular, require each a board or table, arranged with specialV reference to the peculiar features of the game, so that, in families using several of said games, much expense and inconvenience are occasioned by the cost of the required boards, and by the Spare occupied by them.
To remove these objections, and produce a device that, while oceupyingfno more space, and costing but little more than a single'ganre-board of ordinary construction, shall be capa-ble of being changed into boards for use in a number of games, are the objects of our invention, in which consists, as a new article of manufacture, in a gaine-board composed of a. number of cubic blocks contained within a suitable frame, and having upon one side ot' each a portion ofthe diagram used in each of the gaines represented, as is hereinafter shown.
In the annexed drawing- A and A represent a series of cubic blocks, sixtyt'our in number, arranged in a square form, within a snit-able box, li, the sides of which project somewhat above the surface of said blocks.
Upon each tace ofthe blocks A is painted or other- .wise aixed some portion of a game-board, so that, when said blocks are arranged with their corresponding faces upward, and each block in its proper relative position, their united upper surface shall contain the configuration of the complete game-board.
As an illustration of this principle it will be seenthat, in fig. 1, the upper faces of onehalt` of the blocks are colored dark, while the balance have a liglrtcolor, and being so arranged that said dark and light faces alternate in every direction, they form a draughts or checker-board, while in tig. 2, another face of each block being upturued, and'a dividing strip, G, being placed in and through the center, the devices represented thereon 'constitute a backgammon-hoard.
In order to facilitate. their arrangement, the blocks are consecutively numbered upon/one face, from one l to sixty-four,.and, whenr each block and number occupy their proper relative positions, the games are all arranged upon the corresponding faces of said blocks, and can be made ready for use by turning said faces upward.
As thus constructed and arranged, one set of blocks is capable of forming six different diagrams for use in games, by which means a great saving in cost and space is secured.
One side, B', of the box B being hinged at its lower end, and secured in position by means of hooks b, or other equivalent devices, allows of the insertion of a cover, having its edges tongued, so as to fit into a cornespondinggroove within the innerfaces of the sides of said box, by which means the blocks may be securely inclosed when not in use.
Having thus fully set forth the nature and merits of our invention, f,
What we claim as new,vand desire to secure by Letf ters Patent, is
As a new article of manufacture, the hereinbefbr described game-board, composed of a number of cubic .blocks contained withina suitable frame, and having upon one side of each a portion of the diagram used in each of the games represented.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing, we have hereunto set our hands this 17th day of February, 1870. v
