SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 371,457, dated October 11, 1887.
Application filed January 19, 1887. Serial No. 224,785.
T 0 all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, JOHN It. HERSII and ELMER E. HERsH, citizens of the United States, and residents of Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful lmprovementsiu Cabinets, Show-Cases, and Shelving; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a view in perspective of a cabinet show-case embodying our improvements, and Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view on line :0 :0 in Fig. 1.
Our invention relates to cabinets, showcases, and shelving for displaying articles of jewelry, silverware, or any other goods or articles we may desire; and it consists in the construction and novel combination of parts,
view. B designates the central post, and O the corner-posts.
D D, &c., designate mirrors or reflectors, which are connected at their inner vertical edges with the central post, B, and are dis posed radially around said central post, so that the outer "ertical edge of each one of the mir- (No model rors or reflectors D will engage a corner-post O. This disposition of the reflectors causes them to be placed at acute angles one to another, and so that they reflect objects placed between them, and also re-retlect the reflections, causing the articles placed between them to appear to be multiplied or'increased in number.
tween two shelves, F G, separated by vertical posts H along their edges. The mirrors or reflectors D are in this instance also disposed at acute angles to each other, so that any two opposing faces of the reflector will have the same effect upon articles placed between them as they do in the show case first described. In each instance the vertical posts form the vertical edge supports for the reflectors.
Having described this invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
The combination, with the polygonal base, the polygonal top, and the polygonal partition disposed in parallel horizontal planes and connected by the center post and cornerposts, of the mirrors disposed at acute angles and secured in said center post and cornerposts, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof we atfix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
