IMPROVEMENT IN BLANK-BOOKS..
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 135,760, dated February 11,1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN C. BoNNnLL, of Burlington, in the county of Des Moines and State of Iowa, have invented an Improvement in Blank-Books, of which the following is a specification The invention consists in ablank-book which is adapted to many kinds of business, but is particularly intended for railroad agents. It has theadvantage of econoinizing paper, while it is peculiarly advantageous to agents in enabling them to see the state of any account at a glance.
In the drawing, Figure lisa plan View, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation.
A represents the space in which is entered the office at which the sale is made; C, the space in which is entered the name ofthe buyer; D, the space in which the form of coupon is stated; E, the space for through rate; F, the numeral Vdesignation of the coupon or coupons 5 G, the space in which is indicated the class to which they belong; and H, the space in which is placed the pecuniary aggregate to which the sale amounts. These together form a general space, K, that extends from top to bottom of page, and which is repeated nowhere else in the book. All the other parts of this folio and all the space on the other folios are for the name of company,
under which are rate and amount columns. The
. Of course,
substantially the manner first folio a is made of full size, while each succeeding one, b, is curtailed of a length and breadth of paper exactly equal to the space K, or one-fth of each folio. This lessens the cost of such a book nearly twenty per cent., while the name of each buyer and the amount paid by him are shown upon the same page, together `with the particular office at which the purchase was made.
This blank-book, therefore, has the advantage of superior convenience as Well as a decided economy in the cost of manufacture. the plan of forming one general space, K, and arranging the columns thereon,
.as has been described, maybe applied to books for many purposes without departing from the principle of my invention. The space cut out of the short folios may be blocked or iilled out with paper or other material M.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isl As an article of manufacture, a blanlabook provided with one full folio, while the remainder are out out and the vacant space filled, in
as and for the purpose set forth.
