Application filed November 27, 191 8. Serial No. 264,388.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE HARTRICK, a citizen of the United States, residin at Oak Park, Chicago, in the county of C ook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cash-Sales Books, of which the following is a specification.
-This invention relates to improvements in cash sales books.
establishments is one in which .a separate sheet of carbon is attached to the book and adaptedfto be laid in the fold of a long folded sheet containing the necessary or desirable blanks, voucher and check number, with headings or designations for indicatmg the name of the purchaser, residence, month,
year, amount-received, price, amount of sale,
etc., the folded sheets 7 quantity ofvarticles, having the intelligence duplicated thereon, the markings appearing on the upper faces 7 of the top and bottom sheets, so that writ-.
ings on the top sheets will-be recorded directly on the. ,top sheet, and through the carbon sheet transferred to the bottom sheet, the'sheets being perforated at the1r lower ends for ready separation, the bottom or lower sheet being detachably secured tothe short sections 'of the binding of the book.
The book .thus generally described answers and is used for substantially the same purposes as the one about to bedescribed. but involves more labor and expense oftime than the present book, in that it is necessaryfor the clerk to first fold back the top sheet and bring the carbon to position between the folds and after making the necessary record, the carbon :is again taken out or lifted and held back out of the way, when the clerkmust separate the vouchers by two tearing operations into two vouchers or checks, one of which is placed in the package with the purchase, and another (a duplicate of the one placedin the package) F goes to the cashierv andbecomes the cashiers voucher havinghad torn from it acheck orvoucher which is returned with the change to the sales clerk, which voucher or 'check bears numbers and markings corresponding to the numbers on the check sent with the package, and the voucher or check'retained by the cashier, age. Three separate tearing operationsare the form after I involved in' each transaction of'even the simplest, sort when this form of book is used.
The object of this invention is to overcome the objectionsincident to books now in use,
which I do by so making the book and arranging the intelligence thereon, that a single writing operation and a single tearing operationwillsufiice to do efliciently' and in an entirely satisfactory manner all of the things required or involved in the manifold and useless operations above detailed. I have found in actual practice that withthe use of a book constructed in accordance with this invention, the necessary transactions incident to a cashsale canbe performed in less than athird of'the time required with the a old books and methods and in a much neater and more cleanly way since it obviatesthe use of the carbon sheet which soils or smuts the hands of the clerk, and the book.
U A further object of the invention is to provide a bookin which the voucher and check designationswill bevascertainable at a glance, and :means for designating accurately the last. of the series ofvouchers to aid the clerk in gathering together or grasping quickly the necessary number of vouchers in a series and further to provide a means for greatly facilitating in accurately separating the vouchers evenly, and without tearing or mutilating vouchers not intended to be removed, as is the case wherenear pe forations are relied upon as lines of weakness partments of thestore, while the third, the customers check is'placed in the pack-age of merchandise, but I desire it understood that in cases where only two vouchers are needed the construct on and arrangement shown would be equally applicable. and the check sent withthe-packvReferringto the drawings, the numerals 1, 2 and Birespectively designate the cashiers voucher, clerks voucher-and customers check sheets. They are identical in ruli-ngs and designations with the exception of the ,three designations-mentioned, namely cashiers and clerks voucher, and customers I check; Each voucher is provided with a space 4 at one side'for the voucherlnumber and letter designation, the voucher number being the same throughoutfwhereas each voucher is as shown designatedby the letc ters A and which have. afixed relationjto the voucher number. To the right ofthespace l and vertical rulings, which form spaces 7 for' "the quantity of articles sold; 8 for the items,
. {L the vouchers are" ruled with parallel rul ings indicated by the numeral 5, in which the intelligence Amt received, and fSection and'clerk No .a pPear, and below he words Amt received ,spaces are provided "for the amount 'in dollars and cents, and be- "low the words Section and clerk No. is
placed the number of the section andclerk, in the present instance 33. Below these spaces are arranged" aseries of horizontal byname'; 9 the priceper article, and 10 the total amount of the sale, and below thewords Items is placed the name of the particular department in'which the 'book'is used, in the present instance Notions.
While in the drawings; I shown samples of but two clerks vouchers and two customers checks, lettered A and B, these views only representa portion of a sheet for in the arrangement of a book, lprefer to' make each voucher sheet consist of four vouchers and each customers check sheet consist of four cu'stomers checks, lettered in the actual-bookfrom A. to D, inclusive. I 5
also prefer to sever the sheets between the ouchers and checks for a greater portion of heir length, as indicated by the numeral 11, the remainder/or left side of the vouchers and checks being heldtogether by perforated section 12. It will be noted that the third sheet instead of having'designations as Cashiers voucher and Clerks voucher,
has the designation Customers check,"in the space l.v Otherwise the sheets are idential. 5o
' Thesheets 1 and are provided-on their, backs opposite the spaces or places where;
N writings are to be made with carbon surfaces 13,- but the back of the thirdfor customers ,checki isnot provided with carbon or transfer material but is, on the other hand, pro- .videdwith some designation, in thepresent instance a name of a firm, Which is fanciful,
but serves the purpose of indicating to the check so that the requisite number of vouch- --all times throughout the tion referred to on the back of the customers check is repeated upon each check so that the indication for aiding the clerk will appear at I detachingoperation of all of-the vouchers.
Each series of vouchers and checks bears the same number, as for instance the number 32 as shown, but the succeeding series onthe succeeding sheets will bear a progressive number or 33 and soon, which numbers may serve as check and voucher identifications in other connectlon, as for finsta'nce'jwhere a delivery sheet is' employed in, connection withthe sales vouchers andchecks when de livery sheet may have num'b'ers corresponding to the voucher and check numbersunder which reference may be madeto the particular voucher and checle t In use the clerk fillsfin the voucher with the amount received, quantity, itemsfprice' per item, and the amount of the sale, which writing istranSferred to lthecarbo'n to, the second and th'irdsheets, thus producing a 'duplicate'of the c'ashiers, voucher whi'ch'duplicates become a clerks voucher and, a customers check. The clerk then'gather'syto- .gether the vouchers and check'a'nd byavery simple operation aided greatly. by the severance of'thesheets for a portion of theirwidth and by the designation whichap'pears: upon the backs of the customers checks, is enabled to'tear off all three of the sections atone time vandwith avery simplejope'rat'ioni." The 'cashiers voucherxis' sent with 'the'cash. received to the cashier, the clerks'voucher retained by the-clerk and, the 'customers' check is placed in the'package, either. wrapped up and handed to the customer forthwith or require.
. Thus it will beseen that the cashier has at all times a check upon the clerk and the transaction can "be readily identified from thev customers check should'anythinggo wrong with the purchase. I t p I do not desireto be understood as limiting myself in any way to the particular forms of rulingsortheheadings for therulings as obviously these-may to so'me'e'Xtent be changed asthe exigencies of the case may j require,.- 7 v A Having thus described my invent on, what I claimis:- ,7 c

the slips of each set also having voucher delivered as the exigencies of thecase may,
slips of each leaf of the set being arranged to and check designations and being serially marked successively from the bottom to the top of each sheet, a portion of the back of the uppermost slips of each set being coated with transfer material.
2. A sales book comprising in combination a plurality of sets of leaves, each set comprising multiple leaves, the leaves of each set being divided by scorings permitting easy detachment into a plurality of slips, the slips of each leaf of the set being of corresponding number, and corresponding slips of each leaf of the set being arranged to relate to one sales transaction, the different slips being provided with rulings and legends indicating suitable data to be inserted, the slips of each set also having voucher and check designations and being GEORGE HARTRIGK.
