Specicati'on forming part of Letters Patent No. 217,905, dated July 29, 1879; application filed January 17, 1878.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, O. SAoKETLof Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Hotel-Casket; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a top-plan view; Fig. 2, a perspective View of the casket; and Fig. 3 is a detailed sectional view, showing the manner of securing the glass side plates.
Similar letters of reference in the several igures denote the same parts.
The object of this invention is to provide for the use of hotels, offices, and other places of business a simple, neat, and compact device for holding conveniently for use various kinds of inks, pens, pins, cards, envelopes, paper, sand-paper, call-bells, tooth-picks, cardtrays, matches, pencils, and similar articles, and also to hold conspicuously various advertisements, cards, notices, directories and other articles of that character 5 and the invention consists in a structure which I will now proceed to describe.
In the drawings the ground plan of the casket is represented as square, although it may be triangular or of any other regular form, having straight sides between the tow- The towers (shown at a bod) are constructed preferably of solid blocks of wood of any suitable form, secured to the base and the side walls in any suitable manner, and provided with wells or cavities in their upper ends adapted to hold the various articles which are to be contained by them.
Between the towers the sides ef g 7L are inclined, so as to display the cards more advantageously, and terminate at their lower edges in a groove, which holds the lower edge ofthe glass plates that cover and protect the advertising-cards.
The upper edges of the side walls are hori! .by a strip of wood screwed or riveted on.
K is a concaved inclined bed, adapted to hold pens, and having a dripbox or opening, K', at its lower end to receive any ink that may fall from the pens when laid thereon and 7c 7c are curved pen rods, upon which the pens and holders rest When not in use. The racks are raised above the bed sufficiently to prevent Ait from bei ug smeared with ink by the pens, as will be readily understood.
m is a bed for the reception of a strip of sand-paper, on which to scratch matches, the paper being secured by moldings m m', fastened by screws to the frame of the casket.
n is a covered receptacle provided with one 1 or more drawers, n', to hold stamps or other small articles, the top of the receptacle serving also as a suitable support for a call-bell, to be secured thereon.
o is an elongated receptacle, padded, if preferred, at its sides and bottom, for the convenient holding of the silver card-trays used in hotels.
p is a receptacle having an inclined bottom, adapted to hold wash-bills, letter-paper, or other similar articles.
q is a box for envelopes. r is a similar box for hotel-cards, and s is a box for visitingcards.
Other boxes may be added; or, i' or other purposes than hotels, some of those above enumerated-such as boxes o, r, s, or p, or the be1l-staud may be o1nitted,and the space thus vacated may be utilized for different purposes; or the size and shape of the remaining boxes may be correspondingly modified.
I claim as my invention- 1 The inclined concaved pen-receptacle K, Veniently containing and displaying the varihzwing it drip-box, K', at its lower end, subons articles referred to, substantially as herein stantiztlly as described. described.
