.Suc'h supplements are used to bring previously published volumes ,up to date. For example, per: manently bound law bookscontaining annotated statutorycodes or digests of judicial decisions are subject to constant legislative amendment or judicial interpretation. Law publishers meet this condition by periodically printing supplements whose contents arearranged and intended for M This invention relatesgenerally tor booksg and 'enipty'coverpocketby means of which the sup-'- plement. isattachiad to the permanent volume.
Fig. 2, is. a plan View of the supplements. cou- "pling member to which the supplement leaves interpolation into the earlier permanent volumes.
It is obvious that these' permanent volumes and their supplements, being related by a common subject matter, alsoshouldbe physically asso ciated. Not so apparent, but equally important, the physical connection must be such that it supplement, and vice-versa. For the same rea- 'son, it is impossible to have the leaves of both the permanent volume' and its attached supplement fully open concurrently for joint examination. These difficulties can be overcome only by removing the supplement from its pocket. Such removal, however, defeats a prime object of' an attachable supplement: the physical association of permanent volume and. supplement so that the latter will not be lost or mi'slaid or the wrong supplement consulted.
The object of this invention, therefore, is to 1 provide a .book with a removable supplement wherein the leaves of the permanent volume {can be turned without interfering with the open leaves of its attached supplement, and vice-versa. A co-ordinate object. of the invention is the provision of a book of thistype wherein the permanent volume and its attached supplement concurrently can be fully open for joint examination. Other objects and a fuller understanding of my invention may be had by referring to the following description and claims, taken in conjunction with the accompanyingdrawing in which:

4 is a perspective .view of thesupplement inserted in its cover pocket, the supplementleaves .'Referring to the parts by numerals, land 2 respectively designate the front and rear covers of the permanent volume and3' its back. The back 3 01' the permanent volume'is made wider Y than the thickness of its body of leaves 4 in order to-provide aspace'between the'leaves 4 and the '-rear cover 2to receive a removable supplement, the difi'erence in width being substantially equal to the thickness of the supplement to beaccommodate'd. The leaves 4 are permanently bound tothe back 3, their boundedges being distributed along the back '3 from cover I to cover 2 in order to lend support to the back 3.
The 'rear cover 2 has a layer of material 5 secured thereto at its forward and side edges. This shown infFig. 2, it is of irregular shape, having is-slig'htly smaller in length and width than the the cover arm 9 project from a trunk l0 of'the V *ce'ntftheback 3. 1 l
The supplement is formed of a coupling memlayer extends rearwardly to a point adjacent the back 3' and forms with the inner face of the'rear cover-"2 a pocket'fi' which opensvertically adjaber and a plurality of leaves 1."
The coupling-member is made of terial whichis stifier than theleaves 1.
one arinfhereinafter called-the tapered arm 8,
. of asize and shape allowing a snug but tern:
porary'insertion into the pocket 6, and having'a second arm which serves as aback cover member for the supplement leaves, and'which is hereinafter called the cover-arm 9 The cover arm 9 rear cover 2 ofthe'permanent volume.
It will be noted that the tapered'arm 8. and
coupling member of' the supplement. The
and above the trunk ID, the fold being made along trunk III, the fold being made along the vertical line H which is commonto that arm 8 and the The cover arm 9 is .folded forward the horizontal line l2 which is common to that arm 9 and the trunk ID. The creases alon these lines II, I 20f foldmay be reinforced with tape.
The leaves I of the supplement are slightly shorter and narrower than the cover arm 9. These leaves 1 are secured thereto by staples l3 so that their bottom edges are slightly higher than the horizontal line of fold l2 in the coupling member.
The supplement is attached to the book by inserting the tapered arm 8 into the cover pocket 6, as shown in Fig. 4. The insertion should be made so that the horizontal line of fold [2 in the coupling member is slightly below the top of the rear cover 2 of the permanent volume. The snug fit of the arm 8 in the pocket 6 will maintain this juxtaposition.
this invention, relative terms have been employed in describing the size of the supplement leaves 7, the tapered arm 8, and the cover arm 9; likewise in describing the juxtaposition of the supplement leaves I and cover arm 9 and the juxtaposition of the cover arm 9 and the rear cover 2 of the permanent volume. Functionally speaking, these dimensions and juxtapositions should be such that, after the supplement is inserted in its cover pocket 6, the .supplement, when the cover arm 9 is folded, rests entirely within the confines of the rear cover 2, and the supplement leaves I, when the cover arm 9 is unfolded, will be projected to a position where their orbit clears-the orbit of the leaves 4 of the permanent volume.
The permanent volume and its companion supplement are made ready for joint use by opening the rear cover 2 and unfolding the cover arm 9 of the supplement, as shown in Fig. 4. The supplement leaves I will be projected outside the rear cover 2 to a position where their orbit will clear the orbit ofthe leaves 4 of the permanent volume. Thus, each set of leaves can be freely turned without interfering with the position of the other set and, of course, both sets can remain fully open concurrently at the desired pages. When the permanent volume and supplement are not in use, the cover arm 9 is folded back so as to rest within the confines of the rear cover 2 and the permanent volume is then closed in the usual manner. The closure can be made without straining the binding of the permanent vol-- ume, since its back 3 is wider than the thickness of its leaves 4. The supplement thus fits within and forms a component part of the permanent volume, and yet may be readily removed therefrom and replaced when desired.
It will be noted that the permanent volume herein described accommodates its companion supplement in a pocket 6 inside its rear cover 2, which pocket 6 opens vertically adjacent the back 3. This is the type of pocket used in conventional pocket supplement books and was selected for particular description and illustration to demonstrate how readily my invention can be adapted to existing pocket supplement books. However, the objects of my invention can be fulfilled whether the pocket is located in the front or rear cover of the book; whether the pocket opens vertically, adjacent one side of a cover or the other; or whether it opens horizontally, adjacent the top or bottom of the cover. A change in the location of the pocket merely requires a change in the shape and folds of the coupling member of the supplement.
Furthermore, although the removable supplement described herein makes particular reference to the type which connects to its companion permanent volumeby insertion into a cover pocket of the latter, it is understood that I have particularized this form of attachment by way of example only and that numerous changes in the method of connection and other details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A book having inside the rear cover a pocket opening sideways adjacent the back in combinashaped to fit the cover pocket and projecting from the left side of the trunk, the upper horizontal border of, said arm being a continuation of the upper horizontal border of the trunk, said arm being folded backward along its line of junction with the trunk and inserted in the cover pocket, the second arm being smaller in length and width than the book cover and projecting from the top of the trunk, said second arm being scored along its line of junction with the trunk, the plurality of leaves being smaller in length and width than the said second arm and mounted within its confines.
2. A pocket supplement consisting of an oblong trunk, two arms projecting therefrom, and a plurality of attached leaves, the first arm projecting from a vertical border of the trunk, a horizontal border of said arm being a continuation of the same relative horizontal border of the trunk, said arm being folded backwards along its line of junction with the trunk, the second arm projecting from the aforementioned horizontal border of the trunk, said arm being scored along its line of junction with the trunk, the plurality of leaves being smaller in length and width than the said second arm and mounted within its confines.
3. A pocket supplement consisting of a trunk, an arm projecting from a horizontal border of the trunk, a second arm projecting from a vertical border of the trunk, and a plurality of leaves mounted on the second arm.
4. A pocket supplement cover consisting of a trunk and two arms completely and permanently united to the trunk, one arm projecting from a horizontal border of the trunk, the other arm projecting .from a vertical border of the trunk.
