DISPLAY AND sronaen BACK;
Application filed September 3,1826. Serial No. 133,369.
This invention relates to an improved storage and display rack suitable as an article of store furniture, and lliLSlllOTG particular reference to a rack of this kind for the storage and display of magazines, books, and the like.
A specific object of the invention is to provide a rack including a plurality of shelves upon which magazines or books may be stored in piles, the shelves being cooperativelyconstructed for effectively supporting copies of the magazines or books in a substantially upright position at the front of the shelves so that a copy of the magazines or books composing such piles may be displayed to view in front of the latter.
A specific object is to provide a combined storage and display rack of the above kind which is extremely simple and durable in construction as well as eflicient in use.
Other objects will become apparent as the nature of the invention is better understood, and the same-consists in the novel form, combination, and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying" drawing, and claimed.
In the drawing, wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding, parts throughout the several views,
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary front elevational view of a multiple storage and display rack constructed in accordance with the present invention. 7
Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof taken upon line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1 of a single storage and display rack constructed in accordance with the present invention, and
Fig. l is a vertical section taken upon line 44 of Fig. 3.
Referring more in detail to thedrawing, the present invention'generally consists in the provision of a pair of superimposed shelves upon which magazines may be stored or stackedin piles as respectively indicated at 7 and 7 and suitably rigidly'secured upon the lower shelf 5 adjacent to but spaced rearwardly from the forward edge of the latter is a longitudinal rest strip .8 which may have a scalloped upper edge as shown in Figures 1 and 3, or be otherwise formed for ornamental purposes. The rest strip 8 extends at an upward and rearward slight inclination and the forward edge of the upper shelf 6 is beveled at a corresponding inclination as well as formed of lesser depth than the shelf 5 so that the outer surface of the rest strip 8 and the beveled edge 9 of the shelf 6 are in the same inclined plane; It is thus apparent that when copies of the books or magazines are placed on edge so as to seat upon the shelf supported for display purposes, oflf of the rack. a relatively narrow stop strip 10 is rigidly fastened upon the lower shelf 5 along the edge portion of the latter and in spaced relation to and in front of the rest strip 8 so thatthe lower ends of the displayed copies will be seated between the strips 8 and 10 as shown. The space between the strips 8 and 10 is preferably such as to accommodate two copies of the magazines or books therein,
so that a copy from each of the piles 7 and 7 may be displayed directly in front of said piles where the piles respectively contain dif ferent kinds or'issues of'magazines or books therein. 7
As shown in Figures 3 and 4 the shelves be divided into compartments by verti cal partitions 11 so that the copies of each pile may be effectivelv kept separate from those of the adjacent pile or piles.
In the preferred construction the rack is provided with a horizontal top wall 12 having a beveled front edge 13 in the same inclined plane as the rest strip Sand the beveled edge 9 of shelf 6, whereby the displayed copies of the magazines or books'willalsobe effectively supported by resting against the beveled edsze 13 as clearly shown in Fig. 2. Obviously, the present rack may be embodied in a single structure involving only two superimposed shelves, or may be embodied in a plurality of superimposed cooperating pairs of shelves to provide a multiple rack as in Figs. 1 and 2.
In either instance. the rackpreferablv includes a rear wall l iand side or end walls 15 so that a rigid and durable structureis had in which the-shelves are effectively mounted.
From the foregoing description it is be lieved that the construction and manner of use as well as the advantages of the present invention will be readily understood and appreciated by those skilled in the art. a
Minor changes may be made without de 5 forwardly of the rest strip 8, they will also v parting from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
What I claim as new is An open front storage and display rack for magazines or the like including a lower shelf having a rigid stop strip alongits forward edge portion and a rigid upwardly and rear- Wardly inclined rest strip spaced rearwardly from and parallel with said stop strip, and an upper shelf having its forward edge-disposed to cooperate with the rest strip to support copies of the magazines, or the like, in an upwardly and rearwardly inclined position for display when the lower edge portions of said copies are seatedbetween said stop and rest' strlps, said shelves being adapted to have piles of said magazines stored thereon behind the displayed copies, and a top wall having its forward edge engageable by the upper ends of the displayed copies to aid the upper shelf in supporting said copies in flat condition said forward edges of the upper shelf and top wall being beveled and in the same inclined plane as the front-surfaceof the rest strip.
In testimony whereofl ailixinv signature.
