EASEL.
Specification of Letters Patent.
' Patented Jan. 12, 1915.
Application filed July 23, 1914. Serial N 0. 852,553.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VVILLIS Mason CARTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at 118 East Eighteenth street, in the borough of Manhattan, city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Easel, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in easels made of cardboard, bristol board or other material for supporting collapsible dummies, representing an article or a group of articles, which dummy may be collapsed and stored flat, or expanded into a representation of the articles which it advertises.
My easel is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which,
Figure 1 is the locking member, shown as a blank; Fig. 2 is the supporting member shown as a blank; Fig. 3 is a plan view of my device viewed from above and including both the locking member and the supporting member in operative juxtaposition; Fig. 4 is an elevation view of my device viewed from the side, and including both the looking memberand the supporting member in operative juxtaposition.
Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A is the body of my locking member, with notch B at its lower portion.
C is the supporting member, with creases D and notches E, said notches E being so disposed that when supporting member C is bent on creases D as shown in Fig. 3, notches E register with one another and tall immediately beneath notch B in looking member A.
M is a collapsible dummy.
The operation of my device is as follows: The upper end of locking member A is attached to the collapsible dummy M by adhesive or other suitable means, and that portion of supporting member C which lies between the creases D is attached to the collapsible dummy M by adhesive or other suitable means. The free ends of O are bent back along creases D until the notches E register with one another. The notch B of locking member A is then brought into locking contact with notches E by shoving down the member A until the upper edge of the notch 13 is in contact, or nearly so, with the lower edges of the notches E, so that the notch B receives some of the material of the end of members C, and the notches E receive some of the material of the member A, and the easel then stands in permanent locking position as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
I claim:
A support for a collapsible dummy, comprising; a locking member adapted to be attached at its upper end to said dummy, said locking member having a notch on its lower edge; a supporting member having two vertical creases, the portion of said supporting member lying between said creases adapted to be attached to said dummy, said supporting member having a notch near each end of its upper edge; the two notches in the supporting member being so disposed as to register with one another when the supporting member is folded back along said creases; the material adjacent to the two notches in the supporting member being also adapted to interlock with the material adjacent to the notch in the locking member in such manner that the notch inthe locking member receives some of the material of each end of the supporting member, and the notches in the end of the supporting member receive some of the material of the locking member.
WVILLIS MASON CARTER.
