While the invention has been illustrated as embodying a combination character made up of single quotation mark and a single punctuation mark in the form of commas and periods, it is indicated that the inventionalso contemplates the use of combination characters including double quotation marks and other punctuation marks than those'showmsuch, for example, as colons, semi-colons, question marks, etc.
The notches 24 in the type bodies it! and H are conventional and for use in locking the type bodies in printing position. r v 1 While I have illustr'atedand described the preferredform of construction for carrying my in- .ventioninto effect, this is capable of'variation and modification, without departing from the spirit of the invention. I, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precise details of construc' tion set forth, but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as come within the Having thus described my invention what ,I :claimas new and desireto protect by Letters Patent is:
; 1. A type body including a printing face hav- .ing formedthereon integrally with said body a printed the counterparts or inscriptions formed by its. aforementioned constituentswill be arranged in vertical alignment one above the other in the above-named order on the inscription-re ceiving member.
