Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed December 27, 1913. Serial No. 809,105.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, VVINIFREI) ANNIE Ru'r'rv and JOHN BERTRAM EDWARD, citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and residents of 16 Mansfield road, Ilford, Essex, England, and 5 Madras road, Ilford, Essex, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Book Markers or Indicators, of which the following is a specification, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to bookmarkers of the spring clip type which are adapted to grip on to the edges of the pages of a book and project therefrom and which are re movable and exchangeable at will, and consists of an improved form of such markers capable of easy fixing having the projecting parts lying flat on the edge of the book and a shield to protect the pages of the book as hereinafter described.
It has been proposed to make markers or indicators for letter and like filing purposes in the form of spring clips having a head portion bearing the indicating number, letter or equivalent, and a. pair of spring legs by which it can be gripped onto the edge of a stiif partition or dividing board upon which the said indicator can be adjustably placed, but hitherto such indicators have not been used upon the pages of books because the edge of the page is not sufiiciently rigid to so support the indicator as will enable the book to be freely used, for it will be obvious that much handling of the book would be liable to tear the page and thus not only would the book be damaged but the indicator might be lost, furthermore the page of a book may be too thin to afford sutficient substance for the secure grip of the indicator.
Our invention is designed to enable such markers or indicators to be used on books without fear of tearing the pages or losing the indicators and at the same time permit easy adjustment of the marker on the page.
According to our invention we use a marker or indicator of the same kind in conjunction with a shield adapted to be placed over the edge of the page and to receive the spring legs which may be kinked or bent to increase their gripping powerthe said shield being preferably considerably longer than the width of the spring legs so that the marker or indicator may be moved up and down on the edge of the page thereby permitting of adjustment of a considerable number of the markers on the pages of one book without fear of the engagement or catching of one marker with another.
Our present invention is designed chiefly for the purpose of providing a marker which will allow the book to be placed in and out of the pocket without dislodging the clips and a marker which can be easily fixed in position and removed and one capable also, as above stated, of easy adjustment up or down the page to which it is applied. The head is flat or thin so as to be flat on the edge of the book and thus permit the book to which the markers are applied to be put into and out of the pocket, bag or other such receptacle without fear of friction brushing the markers outthe book can also be more easily handled.
to will now describe our invention with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of one form of our device in which the marker is made in one piece having two legs a and b and a head 0 upon which the indicating letter is placed. In this example the leg (4 is kinked at about its center and both legs have their ends slightly upturned.
Fig. 2 shows in section a modified form in which the leg (Z is slightly longer than the leg e and also more curved at its extremity. The head is covered with a disk f, say of celluloid, upon which the indicating number or the like is marked by print, impression or other convenient manner.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a still further modification and shows the same applied to a paper or the like shield g. In this example the legs of the marker are substan-tially alike, their ends being slightly turned toward each other.
Fig. t shows part of a book with four of the markers and shields applied to it, the markers being substantially like that shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 shows two views of another form of marker in which the neck or upper end of the legs are considerably reduced and are adapted to grip on the page as are also the outer ends of the legs.
What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is In a. bookmark, a shield comprising a strip of material bent upon itself and adapted to embrace an edge of a leaf, a clamping member comprising a head, parallel arms integral with the head and substantially at right angles thereto, said shield adapted to be positioned between the arms of the clamp ing member with the looped edge engaging the inner side of the head, said arms having curved portions, the portions of the arms ad- 15 WINIFRED A.
