ful Improvements in and Relating to Manifolding-Books, specification. The object of the inventlon is to provide of which the following is a a pad comprising a series of triplicate sets of sales bills with a cover on the back bound together with the sales bills at one end and having an extension to fold over upon the sales bills at theother end, with transferring material on the back of the first billof each set formaking the duplicate copy, and with manifolding material on the upper side of the cover extension when .folded upon the bills for. making the triplicate copy by, inserting the extension as-a stop-card between the first and second sets of sales bills, the triplicate bill being made of transparent paper for receiving the copy on its reverse side.

For the purposes of illustration,Ihave, in the accompanying drawings, shown and herein described one form of manifolding invention.

book' or pad embodying my invention, the

thrown back. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the book orad. Fig. 3 is a view atthe front end of the pad showing the cover therefor in section. Fig- 4 is a perspective view of the pad, one set of slips being thrown back and the cover extension'being broken away at one corner.

In the drawings, 1 indicates a manifolding pad or book comprising a plurality of each set consisting of an original-slip 1, and manifolding slips 1, and 1, the latter slip being formed from tissue or transparent paper. Preferably, the under surface of the original slip" 1 is provided with a transfer medium 1 so' that the "entry is transferred to the slip 1".

2 indicates a covering for the pad 1. This covering comprises a back 2 and an extension or front 2 which is folded around or over the free ends of the sheets or slips 1,

- 1", and 1, as shown at 2.

1", and 1 are all secured together and to the back 2 by staples 3. The sli s 1', 1 and 1 are preferably weakened a ong a transprinted thereon longitudinal and made on its upper The slips 1*,

verse line 3 order that each slip or each set of slips may be detached from the pad 1 after an entry has been made thereon. I

4 indicates a carbon sheet which is pasted to'and lies flat upon the upper surface of the front 2*. The extension 2 is preferably 'made slightly wider than the pad 1 in order that it may be easily grasped and the carbon sheet 4 is 1n operating the extension 2.

The under surface of the extension 2 has preferably transverse rulings to form suitable columns forthe entry of the total amount of each sale.

In the operation of the pad the extension 2 is inserted between the uppermost set of slips and the next lower set of slips, after which an entry slips 1 of the and operated, made slightly smaller in width than the extension 2 so that. the fingers will not come in contact therewithslightly below the staples 3, in

a is made upon the original uppermost set of slips. The

impression from the carbon-4 is madeupon the lower surface of the slip 1 but as this slip is transparent, it may be read as though surface. entry has been made, one or more of the slips of the; set may be detached. The ex tension 2 may then be inserted below the next succeeding set of slips. 1 7

From the above description it will be seen that the front 2 operates 'to form a hard smooth writing surface when entries are made/on the original slips; that it operates as a support for every part and portion of'the carbon or transfer sheet 4, thus" preventing the latter from becoming torn or wrlnkled; that-it serves as a cover for the pad'whennot inserted between two sets of slips; and that it serves as a stop-card to prevent impressions being made upon any of the manifolding slipsthat are be-- low it. Further, by. pasting the carbon sheet 4 directly upon the front 2', only one partis operated and only one operation isrequired to manipulate the book in getting it ready for each succeeding entry.-

It' will be understood that by making'one slip of each set of slips from tissue paper, the pad is materially reduced in height.

To those skilled or who become skilled in the art of making manifolding books of the class described, many alterations in con struction and widely difieringembodiments and applications of my invention will sug- When such I i of sets of slips of paper, each set consisting of an original slip, a duplicate slip, anda triplicate slip, the latter slip being formed from transparent paper, a covering having a back and an extension, a carbon sheet secured-flat to the upper surface of the said extension, the said extension-being insertible between the triplicate slip of one set of slips and the original slip of the next or following set of sllps, and the under surface of the original slip of each set of slips being provided with a transfer medium, and means securing the slips of the said sets of slips to each other and to the hack of the covering.
