[H100 umu! UNITED STATEs PATENT OFFICE.
I WILLIAM T. SHERER, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
||v|PRovEMENr IN sHow-cAsEs.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 189,508, dated April 10, 1877; application led February 21, 1877.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WM. T. SHERER., of Chicago, in the county of Cook, and in the State of Illinois, have invented certain new and usef'ul Improvements in Show-Cases; and do hereby declare that thc following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making a part of this specification, in which is shown,in perspective, my improved device as arranged for use.
The design of my invention is to enable cigars to be displayed to advantage, and, at the same time, render them easily accessible for retail purposes, to which end it consists, as a new article of manufacture, in a showcase constructed in the manner and in the form substantially as and for the purpose hereinafter specied.
In the annexed drawing, A represents the base of my case which is, preferably, supported upon or by four feet B.
To each corner of the base A is secured a bar, C, which extends upward to, and is connected with, the top D, the rear of said bars being vertical, while the front bars incline rearward at an angle of about eighty degrees from a horizontal line.
The inner faces of the bars C are rabbeted for the reception of glass, a pane of which incloses the ends and front of the case.
The rear side of the oase is inclosed by means of hinged doors E, which open laterally outward, and are covered upon their front sides by mirrors F.
Within the case the space is divided vertically by means of one or more horizontal shelves, G, which may be made adjustable.
If desired, an ornamental sign, El, may be placed upon the top of the case.
As constructed, it will be seen that the casing enables boxes of cigars, whether placed upon the shelf or shelves, or upon the bottom, to be fully displayed from the front, those above being no obstruction to a view of those below, while each box can be reached from the rear without interfering with or rendering necessary the removal of other boxes.
Having thus fully set forth the nature and merits of my invention, what I claim is- As a new article of manufacture, the hereinbefore-described show-case, having vertical glazed ends, an upward and rearward inclining glazed front side, and a vertical rear side inclosed by folding doors, which are covered by mirrors upon their front sides, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I have hereunto set my hand this 2d day of February, 1877.
W. T. SHERER.
