To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, VICTOR M. EARLE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented or discovered certain new and useful Improvements in Story Picture Devices, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention has for itsbbject to provide a story picture device, for the amuse ment of children and others, which will be of such a character as to successively represent different scenes, appearing on parts of a folding leaf or sheet, in such a manner that a story may be progressively told in pictures by folding or unfolding the said leaf or sheet. The folding picture section will preferably be used in connection with what may be termed a permanent picture section, and to which permanent picture section the scenes on the folding section will have a fitting relation, although the folding'leaf or sheet may also be used by itself, to progressively tell a story in pictures, simply by folding up or unfolding the same. The story picture devices, comprising sheets of either of the different forms just referred to, will preferably be bound together in the form of a book of which these different sheets will constitute the leaves, each leaf being intended to tell its own story; or a story may be progressively told by the Inedium of several leaves each having folding sections, all as will'hereinafter more fully appear.
In the accompanying drawings Figures 1 to 6, inclusive, illustrate, in-a progressive manner, a story picture device embodying one form of the present invention, and Fig.
. 7 represents a book composed of leaves or sheets embodylng a somewhat different form of the inventlon from that illustrated-in the other views.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 6, inclusive, 12 denotes a leaf or sheet comprising or providedwith a permanent picture section 13, and a folding picture section 14, the said folding section being creased, as on the lines 15, to divide the said folding section into parts 16 constituting folds or lies when the hese folds or plies will, in a sense, each constitute a anel,
said section 14 is folded up.
and each 'ofthesepanels will bear a iifercut scene, so that by folding up the said section 14 a story may be progressively told, as will be clearly apparent from Figs. 1 to 6, inclusive of the drawings. The folding picture section 14 is connected'with the permanent picture section 13, and both may, if deslred, be on a sheet separate from but connected with the sheet 12 in such a manner that the latter will constitute a background 17 on which parts of the picture may appear, as shown in Figs. 3 to 6, inclusive.
Owing to the fact that the scenes depicted on the folds or panels 16 of the folding section 14 are all, with the exception of the first scene, on the backs or same sides thereof, and also owing to the fact that the picture sheets or leaves are .infolded over and over, only a single one of the scenes of the folding section of the picture-will appear at a time, the rest being hidden. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2 scene 1 is on the front of the panel on the back of which scene 2 is placed. Thus when what may be termed scene 1,v (Fig. 1) is displayed the other scenes are covered up, and this is also true with regard to scenes 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the folding picture section, in that in displaying each of these scenes only the particular scene displayed will be visible, the other scenes being hidden;
Fig. 7 represents a book consisting of leaves each of which is to be composed of a folding picture section 14 the folds or plies of which will bear different scenes bymeans of which a story may be progressively told, either with or without a permanent picture section 13, by unfolding the folding sections of the leaves, after the said leaves have first been folded up on the creased lines 15 which divide the folds or panels. While, therefore, the invention will preferably be exploited by being embodied in a book form,
as shown in Fig. 7, it will be understood that the invention may also be carried into efl'ect'by publishing the picture sheets separately or without embodying them in book form.
The use of the invention will be readily understood from the foregoing, taken more particularly in connection with Figs. 1 to 6, inclusive, which show the folding section displaying the different scenes thereon successively as the said folding section is progressively folded up, as will be understood from these figures, so that the story may be progressively told in pictures.
folding them from both ends or sides in-,
ward, as may be desired to produce different pictorial effects.
Having thus descrlbed my invention 1' claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A story picture leaf or sheet consisting of an over and over infolding sheet each fold or ply of which has a different picture, these pictures representing different scenes illustrating a story, the scenes on the difierent folds or plies, with the exception of the picture representing thefirst scene, being on the same side of the leaf or sheet, while the first scene is on the opposite side of the leaf or sheet, so that when one is displayed the others are hidden, and thus by folding or or sheet and representing difierent scenes having fitting relations to the permanent unfolding said sheet a story may be progressively told in pictures.
"2. A story picture book comprising a series of over and over infolding leaves or sheets which are creased to form folds or plies each of which bears a different picture, these pictures representing different scenes illustrating a story, the scenes on the different folds or plies, With the exception of the I picture representing thefirst scene, being on the same side of the leaf or sheet, while the first scene is on the opposite side of the leaf or sheet, so that when one is displayed the 7 others are hidden, and thus by folding or 'unfoldinga leaf or sheet a story may be a picture, these pictures, with the exception of the picture representing the first scene, being all on the same side of the leaf or sheet and representing different scenes having fitting relations to the permanent picture section, so that, taken in connection with said permanent picture section, each scene of the folding section will illustrate a different phase of a story; and thus by folding or unfolding the said folding section a story may be progressively told in pictures.
4. A story picture book comprising a series of leaves or sheets each consisting of a permanent picture section and an attached folding section composed of a plurality of parts or folds each of which bears a picture,
' these folding part pictures,-with the eX cep-' tion of the picture representing the first scene, being all on the same side of the leaf picture section; so that, taken in connection different phase of a story; and thus by foldin presence of. two witnesses.
