To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT H. ROLFS, a citizen of the United States, and resident of West Bend, in the county of Washington and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pocket-Books; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention consists in what is herein particularly set forth with reference to the accompanying drawings and pointed out in the claim of this specification, its main object being to provide simple, economical folding pocket-books especially designed for secure carriage of paper currency, each pocket-book being of such construction that upon partial opening of the same there will an exposure. of the currency bills therewith at one end to facilitate the selection and withdrawal of one or more of said bills without further opening of said pocketbook. A further object of my invention is to provide members of each pocket-book as aforesaid with compartments for cards and other possessions of the user.
Figure l of the drawings represents a perspective view of an open pocket-book in accordance with my invention partly broken away, the inside of the device being exposed; and Fig. 2, an elevation of the outside of said pocket-book partly folded, a compartment fold flap tongue of a member thereof being exposed.
Referring by numerals to the drawings 3 indicates one, and 4 the other of a pair of flexible parallel members of my improved folding pocket-book, one being preferably approximately one-third shorter than the other. At one end and side edge, the aforesaid members are permanently fastened together to form a pocket for paper currency bills 5, the member 4: being shorter than said bills so as to expose the same at their upper ends when the pocket book is open. Adjacent to its upper end, when open, the bookmember 4 is provided centrally thereof with one section 6 of a snap-button, the other section 7 of this button being in connection with the book-member 3, whereby when said By having the currency snap-button sections are engaged, the aforesaid pocket is closed to prevent a loss or removal of its contents from a side thereof. bills exposed above the upper end of the member 4 any one or more may be readily selected and withdrawn without opening the pocket at the side.
The upwardly extending portion of the member 3 is designed to fold 1n with the exposed ends of the currency-bills aforesaid over the member 4 of the pocket-book, and said members are provided respectively with sections 8, 9, of a preferably centrally disposed snap-button by which to fasten the infolded extension of one to the other. complete the folding of the pocket-book, that portion of the same and the currencybills therewith below the infolded portion of the member 3 are bent over upon the re mainder of said book, each fold being a proximately one-third of the length of the open book.
The infolding portion of the me ber 3 of the pocket-book is shown as the 520k of a preferably mica-glazed compartment 10 in which to place a railroad-pass, identification-card or other device that may be readily displayed by a partial opening of said book and without disclosure of any of its other contents. It is also shown that the pocketbook member 4 may constitute the back of compartments 11 and 12, for the reception of cards and other possessions of the user. A closing flap 13 for the compartment 12 is shown, and this flap is provided with a securing-tongue l4 engageable with the front of said compartment under a band 15 thereon. The compartment 12 is also shown as having end gussets 16.
