June 25, 1940. E, B. DREHER COMBINED CHECK AND ACCOUNT Boox Filed Aug. 26, 1938 i f e m W m. M EDU am E I f A L b @Mm Patented June 25,` 194() i UNITED STATES PATENT OFFCE COMBINED CHECK AND ACCOUNT BOOK n Ellsworth B'. Dreher, New York, N. Y. Application August ze, 193s, serial No. zaasss 2 Claims.
This invention relates to books of account and `more particularly to a combined check and account book.
One object of my invention is to provide a novel arrangement of ruled sheets and checks which will facilitate the work of bookkeeping and accounting. A further object is to provide a book of this character which is simply constructed, one wherein a maximum use is made of the space provided and a still further object is to minimize fraud and error by making the detection of a false or erroneous entry relatively easy.
In the preferred form of my invention I provide in addition to the check and check stub, an additional removable sheet with appropriately designated spaces on one side for a record and distribution of outlay accounts and, on the opposite side with corresponding spaces for the record and distribution of intake accounts.
In the embodiment of my invention herein disclosed, the particular arrangement of checks, check stubs and the account sheet is such that ywhen a check is made out, spaces on the stub and on the outlay account sheet in which the data on lthe check are to be entered, appear on the same side of the paper so that the appropriate entries may be made without removing the check or turning a leaf.
Other objects of my invention will appear from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure l is aperspective view of a book embodying my invention;
`Figure 2 is a top plan view of the sheet shown in Figure l with two checks folded down to expose a portion of the outlay record sheet;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary view at the binding showing the reverse side of thecheck stub; and
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view showing the rear or intake account side of the record sheet.
It will be understood that while I have shown one sheet of this drawing any desired number of such sheets may'be bound together along the portion Ill to form a book.
The sheet is folded at ll to form a check stub portion l2 which is appropriately ruled to form spa-ces for information. in regard to checks drawn and deposits made, lthe check number, date of check or deposit and amount.
The back of the check stub portion as shown in Figure 3 is appropriately ruled to provide spaces for the bank reconciliations at the termination of any definite period including a space for the bank balance, deposits, checks, the deposits not credited and the checks outstanding.
The remaining portion of the sheet in the par` ticular embodiment of the invention herein disclosed is L-shaped and comprises a portion i4 lying partly beneath the stub portion l2 and ruled to form spaces for the record and distribution of outlay and intake accounts and the L-shaped sheet also comprises a check portion I6 connected to the portion i4 at the bottom and normally folded upward against the portion i4.
The portion I4 is adapted to be removed from the binding and for this purpose is formed with a weakened line l'l and to adapt for insertion in a looseleaf binder, is formed with openings i8.
The checks of the portion iii which as shown are eight in number, are removable from one another and from the portion it along weakened lines 253 and the checks are printed so that when the portion I6 is folded on portion. iii the checks face downwardly, and when a check is to be made out it is folded down as shown in Figure 2 so as to expose the face of the check.
The portiton M is ruled with a series of co1- umris; first from left to right the date column, the check or voucher column in the first eight spaces of which are printed the numbers of the eight checks forming the portion EE, the remaining spaces being adapted to receive identications of vouchers for goods, etc. purchased on credit. The next column towards the right is to receive the name of the ventor or creditor. The next column is adapted to receive the amounts of the transactions, then the discount allowed followed by two columns of accounts payable; whether the account is a credit or debit, followed by a series of columns which are adapted to receive the distribution of the `outlay accounts such as rent, salaries, merchandise, supplies and other expenses.
The back of portion I4 is ruled with spaces corresponding quite closely to the columns on the front as may be seen in Figure 4.
It will be seen that when the portion H3 is folded against the portion la the inner edge of the portion I lies closely adjacent but not overlapping the outer edge of the stub portion l2. It is therefore of uniform thickness throughout. Also when the checks are turned down and lled out, all of the spaces for receiving the informaton relative to the transactions not only on the stub but on the record sheet, are exposed, thus pern mitting the copying of the information with a minimum chance of error. The spaces on the `record sheet below the spaces designated by check numbers receive items of outlay accounts other than those represented by checks.
Also it will be noted that the record portion I4 provides for a complete record of all transactions whether debit or credit.
Having now described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A combined check and account book comprising a series of L shape sheets folded and bound together at one end and forming at one side of the fold a narrow leaf with appropriately designated spaces forming a check stub and at the opposite side of the fold with two portions one of which is folded upward against the other to form of the entire sheet a rectangle, said one portion -comprising a plurality of checks and the other portion having suitably designated spaces for the recording of outlay accounts, said checks when folded against said other portion having their printed faces downward and said checks being foldable on themselves to expose the printed side and to exposev designated spaces on said other portion tol receive information on the check.
2. A combined check and account book comprising a series of L shape sheets folded and bound together at one end and forming at one side of the fold a narrow leaf with appropriately designated spaces forming a check stub and at lthe opposite side of the fold with two portions one of which is folded upward against the other to form of the entire sheet a rectangle, said one portion comprising a plurality of checks and the other portion having suitably designated spaces for the recording of outlay accounts and having weakened lines to` permit its separation from the fold to Y permit insertion in a binder, said checks when folded against said other portion having their printed faces downward and said checks being foldable on themselves to expose the printed side and to expose designated spaces on said other portion to receive information on the check.
