UNTTED. STATES PATENT OFFICE W. SCOTT CORNING, OF BATAVIA, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN sHoE-Bo-XES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 172,706, dated January 2.5, 1876; application tiled March 19, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, W. SGOTT GORNING, of Batavia, in the county ot' Kane and State of Illinois, have invented an Improvement for a Shoe-Box, reference being had to the accompanying,` drawings, which form a part hereof.
The object of my invention is to make a shoe-box to be used by shoe-dealers in their stores, to keep their stock ot' shoes in, which they have for sale. It is customary for shoedealers to keep their stock of shoes in large paper boxes, keepin g dierent sizes and ditterent styles, ot' which every dealer has a variety, separate from each other.`
In order that the dealer may know what size or variety is kept in any particular box, Without taking` the box down from its shelt' and removing the cover, it is necessary to have a sample-shoe hung upon the outside of the box. These samples become soiled and shopworn.
To obviate these objections, I have invented certain improvements in the construction ot' the shoe-box, which consist of making the box in two compartments, the front compartment being sufticiently large to contain a sample-shoe, and having` a glass front, so The cover ot' the box is removable, and covers both compartments.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a top or plan view ot' my shoe-box; and Fig. 2 a front elevation of the same.
I make my box of thick board-paper, with stittening-pieces of wood, or other suitable material.
A represents one compartment of the box 5 B, the other compartment; G is the glass front ot' the front compartment. The compartment B is intended to contain the sampleshoe. In order to make the front compartment small and make the box more accessible to get hold of, to move it from the shelf and diminish the vsize ofthe glass, I make the front part of the box smaller by having the angle-corners c.
bare stay-pieces upon the inside oi' the front part of the box, making a groove into which the Vglass front C slides.
D is the cover of the box, made ot' the same shape as the two compartments ot' the box.
As these boxes set upon the shelves in the shoe-dealers store, he can see the sampleshoe and take down the box containing the shoes his customer Wants. He then removes the cover l) from tbe box and takesthe shoes from the compartment A, in which a quantity of shoes are kept.
A shoe-box constructed with a main compartment, A. and a small sho\vcompartment,
B, in front, the latter having inclined sides c and a transparent front, C, substantially as
