JOHN B. BUFFALO, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
COMBINATION FOR PRINTING FACSIMILES OF TYPEVVRITTEN LETTERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 4:, 1922.
' Application filed. February 5, 1921. Serial No. 442,864.
Be it known that I, JOHN ll. Horn-lilo, a citizen of the United States, and resident of the borough of lllanhattan, city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Combination for Printing Facsimiles of Typewritten Letters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
The objects of my invention are. first, to
' provide a means of printing circular letters mechanically from one set-up of type, while individually printing an address and an inserted name corresponding therewith, all at one operation: second, to do this in such a way as to produce a facsimile of an individual typewritten letter; third, to provide means for these purposes of simple. and inexpensive construction and capable of being filed. in small spaces.
l accomplish these objects by a combination of mechanism of which the following is a specification, and 1 illustrate the same by the accompanying); drawings, in which Fig ure 1 is a plan of a chase with type for a form letter therein embodying a space left blank therein, type furniture and a type holding plate to contain an individual name, address and Salutation, and a separate set of type contained in a holder and inserted in the blank space left in the type; Fig. 2, is a side View of a block of type furniture with a recess therein containingeight mono type in a holder: Fin". 3 is a section taken on line 33 of Fig. 2; Fig. 4t is a perspective view of the type furniture for the insert and Fig. is a perspective VleW of a typeholder for the insert.
The chase 1. contains a. setup of type 2, for a. form letter or circular embodying a space 3, which is filled by a block of type furniture 4; of a size adapted to hold the type in lineal-alignment but which in depth is of such size that it does not reach type height and which contains a recess of such depth that when a typeholder 6 containing monotype 7 inserted therein is placed in said recess on this block of type furniture in the blank space left in said type in said chase, theinserted type will be of proper type height to correspond with the balance of the type set up therein; an additional typeholder 8 containing a name and address 9 and Salutation 10, the name in which corresponds to the name inserted in the blank space in the type, is placed on an appropriate block of type furniture, in the top of the chase at a position suitable for printing the name and address of the circular letter to be mechanically printed by the thereinbelow contained type.
A typeholder for this insert is composed of a rectangular box, preferably of sheet metal bent to shame. embodying projections at the bottom thereof at both ends and embodying! a slit therethrough in the top thereof, in width corresponding to, or slightly greater, than the thickness of the neck of the type, that the type may be in-. sorted and assembled. in the box and the bottom flanges bent up transversely so as to seal the type therein in readiness for printing. I
The type furniture consists of a rectangular block of wood. the thickness of which corresponds to the width of the typeholder. which block of wood embodies a recessed upper surface corresponding in. length to the length of the typeholder. with project inp; portions of the said block of type furniture on both sides of such recessed portion to hold the typeholder against lateral movement in the chase.
The form letter is set up in type from a. typewriting font, and may be either monotype or linotype and in the body of such type for such form letter atan appropriate place for repeating the name of the addressee thereof. being the same name contained. in the typeholdcr S. a blank space is left and filled with the block of type furniture 4t and wedged in place. A further block of type furniture. not illustrated, is wedged in the chase as a backing; for the typeholder 8 containing the name and ad dress 9 and the salutation 10.
By my method of utilizing type from a typewritine' font and having a separate insert in the body ofthe letter containing the name of the addressee thereof as well as utilizing a typeholder for the name and ad.- dress also containing type from a typewriting font, I am able to mechanically print either through a ribbon or by other conventional methods of printing a form letter which through the use of removable address holders and also a removable insort in the body thereof will present such a close facsimile of an individually typewritten letter, that the receiver thereof will be unable to distinguish it therefrom, which is obviously very valuable for advertising purposes. I am aware that hitherto coinbinations for printing facsimiles of typewritten 7 letters with removable address plates havebeen in use and also that there have been such facsimile letters hitherto in use where :1 11111118 has been printed inthe margin, and I; do not claim such a combination broadly.
What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is, V
1. In a device for printing fac-similes of individuallytypewritten letters, the combination of a chase, type therein'for printing a formletter in imitation-of atypewritten letter, a blank space in the body of this type, a block of type furniture of less than type height and embodying. a recess in the upper for printing a formletter in imitation of a typewrittenletter, a blank space in the body of this type, adapted to contain the afore surface thereof, with a typeholder composed of a'rectangular box, preferably of sheet metal bent to'shape embodyingprojections at the bottom thereof at both ends, and embodying a slit therethrough in the top thereof in width corresponding to the thickness of the neck of the type, whereby monotype may be inserted in the'said rectangular box 1 and the bottom flanges thereof bent up transversely, thereby sealing the type therein in readiness for scribed.
2. A device for holding type to be inserted in the blank space in the printed form, embodying a rectangular box composed of sheet metal bent to shape embodying projections at the bottom thereof at bothends and emprinting, substantially as de bodying projections at the bottom thereof at bothends and embodying a slit therethrough 1n the top thereof corresponding in width to the thickness of the neck of the type,
type in the said rectangular box with the bottom flanges of the said box bent up transversely so as to seal the type therein, together with a printer's chase, type therein said rectangular box with the type therein inserted in the said blank space in the said printers chase, a typeholder having name,
address and Salutation in imitation of type writing-also contained in the'saiddprintefls chase, all substantially as describe Signed at the borough of Manhattan, city of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York this 22nd day of January A. D. 1921.
