BUSINESS CARD.
Application led December 30, 1921. Serial' No. 526,018.
To all whom it 'may concern.'
Be it known that I, FRANK A. HAYs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Business Cards, of which the following is a speciication.
Corrugated or plain wire glass isan example of many articles of manufacture use- -ful as building materials and consisting of reinforced sheets, and these are offered to the trade and to builders and architects by visiting solicitors or traveling salesmen who introduce themselves by means of business cards. 1
The principal object of the present invention is to provide business Cards which not only arrest the attention of possible Customers or prospects to whom they are presented but also forcibly suggest and impress upon the memory the subject-matter of the business.
The invention will be claimed at the end hereof but will be first described in Connection with its application to the wire glass business although it must be remembered that the invention is not limited to that business, and in the description reference will be made to the accompanying drawings forming part hereof and in which Figure 1 is a face view of a business Card embodying features of the invention.
Fig. 2 is an end view of such a card in corrugated form, and
Fig. 3 is an end view of such a Card in flat form.
The business card simulates an article of manufacture comprising a reinforced sheet having embedded therein a reinforcement in the present instance corrugated or plain wire glass. The business card consists of a sheet 1 of Celluloid or like material having on one face an imprint 2 representing the reinforcement and creating the illusion that it is embedded in the sheet. As shown the Celluloid material is transparent and the imprint on the face of the Celluloid represents wire mesh so that if the sheet of Celluloid is flat,`the simulation is of wire glass, and if the sheet of Celluloid is corrugated, the simulation is of corrugated wire glass. The imprint 2 of the reinforcement and the name of the person or other matter of advertisement or information are printed on the face of the Card of Celluloid or like material and the latter can then be corrugated if desired. The material of the card is not brittle and lends itself well to the retention of corrugated form. The imprint is made with printers ink and the ink used for the imprint of the mesh may be of paler color or more bluish than the ink used in the imprint of .the name of the manufacturing company which latter ink may be quite black.
I claim:
l. An article of manufacture Comprising a generally rectangular sheet of material adapted to be used as a business card and consisting of transparent Celluloid having delineated on one face thereof an imprint representative of wire mesh whereby the same simulates a piece of wire glass.
2. An article of manufacture Comprising a generally rectangular sheet of material adapted to be used as abusiness Card and consisting of transparent Celluloid having delineated on one face thereof an imprint representative of corrugated wire mesh and having corrugations formed therein wherewire glass.
FRANK A. HAYS.
