RAPHEL PHILLIPSON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN BlLLlARD-CUES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 173,996., dated February 22, 1876 application filed January 21, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
' Be it known that I, RAPHEL PHILLIPSON, of the city of Chicago, (look county, State of 'Illinois, have invented a new and useful Imsandpaper, which I accomplish as hereinafter set forth.
In the drawings, A represents the large end or handle of a billiard-cue. B is a metal plate, secured to, and countersunk into, one side of A. (J is a chalk-holder. It is round, and is somewhat larger than the small end of the one. It is made of metal. One end is open; the other is closed by means of b, which is a little larger in diameter than the cup portion of G. 0 is a spring on the inside of G, for the purpose of preventing the chalk from slipping out. a is the lining of a round hole or recess, 01, in A, adapted to receive 0. d is a spring-bolt. Its inner end projects a little way into the opening for O, and prevents C. from The end of d comes in contact with C, but does not pass through its It may enter the groove f. D is the shell.
chalk. E is a cover for the receptacle E, which may be used for sand-paper. e is a spring, which holds E down.
In use, a piece of chalk is to be inserted in G,'which is to' be placed in z, from which it can be easily removed by the player (he taking hold of b) whenever he desires to chalk the end of his cue.
This device has many advantages, among which are the following: The player does not have to walk around the table to find a piece ofchalk, in doing which he is liable to get in the way of others, but he always has chalk with him. The holder 0 protects the chalk, so that a small piece will last a long time, and the holder serves as a guide, and prevents the chalk from slipping from the cue while being used thereon. It'also keeps the fingers from being soiled with the chalk, and is more conveniently handled than a piece of chalk varying in size.
lhe spring 0 is not a necessity; and G can be held in place by means other than d.
What I claim as new, and desire by Letters Patent, is as follows:
The combination, with the billiard-cue A, provided with a recess, 6, of the removable chalk-holder 0,.substantia1ly as and for the purposes set forth.
