Application filed November 1, 1913.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, PETER R. WARREN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, county of Suffolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Display-Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
My invention has for its object a new and improved display holder for cylindrical articles such as pencils and the like, and is designed so that it may be quickly and cheaply produced from a single blank of card board or other similar material.
It is intended particularly for use in places of a public nature, such as stands and counters in stores, and therefore is so constructed that articles which are displayed in it cannot be easily removed by a person unacquainted with the structure of the display holder although they may be by the salesman. Furthermore the device may be readily set up and, therefore, properly died blanks may be shipped very inexpensively to the retailer and set up by him. This is especially valuable as it permits the holder to be used extensively for advertising purposes.
The invention will be understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the novel features are particularly pointed out and defined in the claims at the close of the specification.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a view in perspective of my improved display holder containing pencils. Fig. 2 is a plan view of a card board blank from which my device is constructed, properly died out and ready for folding. Fig. 3 is a vertical section partly broken away taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section partly broken away taken on line H of Fig. 1.
Having reference to the drawings, my improved display holder is shown in Fig. 1 having a back or rear portion A, a bottom B and sides C and D. The holder contains pencils E or articles of a similar nature which are retained in it in a manner hereinafter to be set forth. The parts of the holder described above are preferably formed from a single piece of sheet material as shown in Fig. 2, because the device is particularly adapted to be constructed after that manner and this is advantageous for the sheet may be formed by a single stroke Specification of Letters Patent.

of a die. I regard this as an important feature of my invention for it materially lessens the cost of producing and shipping the holder thereby permitting it to be used for advertising purposes and the like. The back A of the holder may have any desired shape. I prefer, however, to form it as shown in the drawings, extending well above the sides C and D, which leaves a space for printed matter and also permits the holder to be readily hung on the wall by means of the hole M. The back A is separated from the bottom B by a crease or fold p which may be formed in any well known manner, the bottom being provided with tabs 6 at each end for purposes hereinafter to be described. The sides C and D are preferably formed as shown in Fig. 2 and consist of portions 0 and d which when folded will be on the outside and inside respectively and, therefore, for convenience may be termed outside faces and inside faces. Each of the inside faces has a gluing fiap Z and a top 0 which in turn is provided with a tab 7. Connecting the outside and inside faces are portions 9 which form the front edges of the sides, as shown in Fig. 1. The front edge portions 9 are provided with tabs it and 2', which together with the other tabs and flaps mentioned cooperate to hold the sides in folded position as will hereinafter be described.
I have shown in the drawings a holder each of which are of sufhcient width and.
length to hold a given number of the articles to be displayed, the articles in the form shown in the drawings being placed one above the other. The outside face of the right hand side of the card board blank as shown in Fig. 2, is provided with holes 7' each of which is in line with the upper end of a slot when the parts are in folded position. Of course, itis obvious that the number and arrangement of slots may be varied as desired, but I prefer the construction shown for the reason that it is simple and effective for the purposes for which the holder shown in the drawings is designed.
The display holder is made ready for shipment by folding the sides into the position shown in Fig. l, the inside and outside faces G and D being placed at right angles to the back A and parallel with each other, and the edge portions 9 being parallel with the back. The sides are retained in folded position by means of the glue flap Z which may be secured to the back by an adhesive or in any other well known manner, as is clearly shown in Fig. 4. It will be noted that this construction permits the sides to be folded down against the back and the holder shipped flat. I regard this as important for it materially decreases the expense of shipment. The holder may be readily made up for. use by a retailer or other persons receiving it by placing the sides in the position shown in Fig. 1, folding the bottom B at right angles with the back A so that the lower edges of the outside faces of the sides lie adjacent withthe end edges of the bottom. The parts are retained in this position by tucking the bottom tabs 6 within the sides, and the tops are folded down and retained in place by the tabs i all as is clearly shown in Fig. 3. If it is desired the tabs referred to may be also securely fastened in position by means of an adhesive or the like.
It will be readily seen from the description hereinabove set forth that the display holder has hollow rectangular sides, the inside faces of which are provided with oppositely disposed slots and the outside face of one of which has holes in the line of said slots, all as is clearly shown in Fig. 1. Each pair of said oppositely placed slots are of sufficient length to hold a given number of the articles for which the holder is designated, for example, opencils, as shown in Fig. 1. The holder should preferably be constructed so that the length of the bottom is substantially equal to the length of the article to be retained in it. A given pair of slots 70 is filled by inserting the pencils or other articles one at a time through the hole 9' which is in line with an adjacent slotlr. Since the distance between the inside faces (1 is less than the length of the article to be displayed, before it has been passed completely through the hole j, its other end will reach the opposite inside face cl and may be inserted within the corresponding slot 70 whence it will drop into place and be supported Within the slots as shown in Fig. 1. When the holder is full the articles displayed will lie in series one over the other completely filling the slots. The sides are double walled with a space between in order that the contents of the holder cannot be removed except by passing the articles one at a'time through the holes i j. I regard this as important for it makes it practically impossible for a person unacquainted with the structure of the display holder to'remove any of its contents.
What I claim is' 1. The improved display holder comprising a back, oppositely disposed sides secured to said back having outer and inner faces retained apart, from each other, the opposing faces of said sides having oppositely placed slots therein for the reception of the ends of articles to be displayed and an outer face having a hole therein in line with a portion of said oppositely placed slots to permit the passage therethrough of one of said articles only at a time.
2. The improved display holder comprising a back, a bottom, sides secured to said back and bottom having outer and inner faces retained apart from each other,one of said inner faces having a slot therein, the other of said inner faces having a corresponding slot oppositely disposed to said first mentioned slot, said slots being adapted to retain a tier of articles to be displayed, and an outer face having a hole therein in line with said slots, said hole being adapted to permit the passage therethrough of one of said articles only at a time. 7
3. The improved from a single sheet of folded-material and having a back, a bottom and two parallel box-shaped sides, the opposing faces of which have oppositely placed slots therein for the reception of the ends of articles to be displayed and having outer faces one of which has a hole therein'in line with a portion of said oppositely placed slots. 7
4. The improved display holder formed from a single sheet of foldedmaterial and display holder formed having a back, a bottom member, box-shaped sides secured to said back and parallel with each other, the opposing faces of said sides having slots therein oppositely placed for the reception of articles to be'displayed, an outer face having holes therein in line with a portion of said slots, each of said sides having a top member detachably secured at one side and said bottom being detachably secured to said sides whereby said members may be detached permitting 'said boxeshaped sides to be pressed inwardly and lie flat against said back. i
In testimony whereof I affix my signature, in presence of two witnesses. r
