JOSEPH JEZALIK, OF NEWV YORK, N. Y.

PAPER BOX.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 370,481, dated September 27, 1887.

' Application filed July 27, 1887.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOSEPH J EZALIK, of the city, county, and State of New York, have in vented certain new and useful improvements in Paper Boxes, of which the following is a specification.

.This invention relates to an improved paper box for cigarettes and other articles, the body of which can be readily drawn out for removing the cigarettes, and the construction of which requires a much smaller quantity of paper than the boxes heretofore in use, so that the same can be manufactured at less expense;

posed of an exterior guide-box of sufiicient size, and an interior sliding box,which is made of one continuous piece, equal in width with the exterior box, the end of said piece being permanently attached to the top of the outer box, bent at one end of the same and passed along the bottom of the box, and provided at the opposite end with a lid and closingflap, as will appear more fully hereinafter, and finally be pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a perspective view of my improved paper box. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same on line x 00, Fig. 1; and Fig. 3 is an end view showing the lid in closed position. I

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

Referring to the drawings, A represents the oblong guide box or casing of my improved paper box for storing cigarettes or other articles. To the exterior guide-box, A, is applied an interior sliding portion, 13, which is formed of one continuous piece of paper, that is attached at one end, by gluing or otherwise, to the top part of the box A. The portion B is then run along the top of. the box A to one end of the box A, where it is bent so as to form a curved bottom for the exterior box, A. The portion B is then extended forward along the bottom of the outer box,A, to the opposite end, where it is folded to form a closing-lid, a,

7 same.

and flap b, for the sliding box B. A small Serial No. 245,419. (No model.)

flap, d, is cut integral from the lid a, and serves for pulling out the interior sliding portion whenever it is desired to open the box and to remove a cigarette or other article from the For this purpose the flap d is taken hold of and the interior sliding portion, 13, drawn out into the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, in which position the cigarette may be readily removed. For replacingit, it is pushed back into the exterior guidebox, A,

until the lid and flap are restored to their normal position, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. As the interior piece, B, has no side walls, a considerable quantity of paper-stock is saved in making the box, so that the same can be furnished at a considerably less expense, while it possesses all the advantages of the old'style cigarette or other boxes in opening and closing the same, so as to remove the articles con tained therein.

Having thus described my invention, 1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A paper box consisting of an exterior guide box or casing and an interior sliding portion made of one continuous piece, equal in width with the exterior box, said interior piece being attached to the top wall of the box, bent at one end of the guidebox, extended along the bottom of the guide-box, and pro vided at its opposite end with a closing lid and flap, substantially as set forth.

2. The combination, with an exterior guide box or casing, of an interior sliding portion composed, of a continuous piece of paper with out side walls, said interior piece being attached to the top of the guide-box, bent at one end of the same so as to form a curved bottom, extended along the bottom part of the guidebox, and provided at its opposite end with a closing lid and flap, substantially as set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
