UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN T. STORY, OF BUFFALO, NEW YORK.
COMBINED CALENDAR AND MEMORANDUM-PAD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 437,058, dated September 23, 1890.
Application filed December 12, 1889- Serial No. 333,451. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN T. STORY, of Buffalo, Erie county, New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Calendar and Memorandum-Pad, of which the following is a full,clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention consists of a package of slips stitched or otherwise attached together crosswise in the center and provided with a Vertical elastic cord to hold the slips in position, said slips being printed with calendars and memoranda-headings in the peculiar manner hereinafter described, whereby both sides of the slips can be utilized.
In the drawings, Figure l is a face view of the pad or package of slips attached to a backing and held in position by an elastic cord. Fig. 2 is an edge View of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a similar View of the pad removed from the backing. Fig. 4 is a face view of the pad removed from the backing, the relative position of the calendar and memoranda being reversed; and Fig. 5 is a View of a portion of the backing, showing one of the slits for holding the elastic cord. 7
Referring to the drawings by letter, A indicates the pad, and B the backing, the latter being provided with an eyelet a or other device, by which said backing can be hung up. The pad A is composed of a series of separate slips or sheets of paper, which are stitched together crosswise centrally, as shown at b, or otherwise connected, so as to form two separate sets of leaves 0 and d, which turn vertically. The pad thus formed is attached to the'backing B in any suitable manner, as by gluing.
Each ofthe separate slips or sheets which compose the pad is printed on its front face, with a calendar at its top occupying its upper leaf, and with a memoranda-head at its bottom with a blank space below. which occupies the lower leaf; or, if it be desired, the calendar may be printed at the bottom, as shown in Fig. 4, and a space left at the top for memoranda. It is obvious that I may in sert an advertisement or design of any kind in the space at the opposite end of the leaf to that on which the calendar is located.
The backs of the slips are printed with the same matter as the face, except that the position of the cal ndar and memoranda-space is the reverse to that on the face--that is, if, as shown in Fig. 1, the calendar be printed on the upper part of the face of the sheet on the back the calendar would be on the lower part. It is apparent that it would be necessary to reverse the printing, so that when the lower part of the sheet is turned up the reading matter will be legible.
Instead of a monthly calendar, I may use a weekly or daily calendar.
In the modification shown in Fig. 4 simply a pad is used, formed of a number of leaves stitched together, having a backing of the same size as the sheets; or the backing may be dispensed with altogether, forming a calendar for use on the, desk.
When used upon a backing, the pad is held in position by a rubber cord 0, which is secured at its ends in the slits f.
At the expiration of a month the upper leaf 0 is turned down, presenting the next calen- 5 dar month at the top of the succeeding slip and a memoranda-sheet below, which is on the back of the slip just turned down. The whole year, which is represented by twelve slips, is indicated in this way. In the same manner by turning the lower leaves up in stead of the upper leaves down a like result is produced, as a monthly calendar will then be exhibited at the top and a memorandaspace at the bottom, as before. Two succeeding years can therefore be embodied in the same pad, or any desired number of years can be embodied by increasing the number of sheets in the pad, one half of the number of years being indicated by turning the'leaves 0 down and the other half by turning the leaves up.
I also desire to be protected in the use of a single sheet printed as described.
Having thus described my inventiomwhat I 5 claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- I In a combined calendar and memorandum pad, the combination of the sheets having calendar and memoranda spaces at opposite ends and arrangedin reverse on opposite sides of the sheets, the said sheets being stitched transversely for the purpose set forth, the backing for the pad, and the elastic cord secured at its ends to the hacking and stretched vertically over the face of the pad, substantially as hereinbefore described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
MONTGOMERY GIBBS, EDWARD (J. RANDALL.
