'GOMBINATION CHECK.
No. 448,290. Patented Mar. 17, 1891.
UNITED STATES CHARLES ZALLUD, OF NElV YORK, N. Y.
PATENT! @rricn;
COMBiNATION-CHECK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 448,290, dated March 17, 1891.
Application filed May 21, 1890.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES ZALLUD, of the city of New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Combination-Checks, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in com bination-checks for use wherever it is desirable to indicate to a purchaser the amount of his purchase, and particularly where, as in restaurants, for example, the amounts are liable to be any sum from one cent up to ten dollars or more, the objectbeing to materially reduce the number of pieces required to represent any amount desired between the limits determined by the amount of the least and greatest purchase that willprobably be made.
A practical embodiment of my invention is herein represented, in Which Figure 1 represents three of a series of checkscctions denoting one denomination of currency. Fig. 2 is an edge view of one of the checks shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 represents five of a series of check-sections denoting another denomination of currency. Fig. 4 is an edge view of one of the sections shown in Fig. 3. Fig. 5 represents five of a series of check-sections denoting still another denomination of currency. Fig. 6 is an edge view of one of the sections shown in Fig. 5. Fig. '7 represents two checks complete, showing the sections assembled to denote different amounts, and Fig. 8 represents the reverse side of one of the checks shown in Fig. 7.
The check-sections shown in Fig. l and marked A, B, and C, I term, for convenience, the body-sections of the check, and in the present instance the numerals O, 1, and 9 thereon are intended to represent dollars. The central portions a, b, and c of said body-sections are preferably thinner than the edge portions a ,b and c, and arecessD is formed in the edge of each body-section for the reception of the removable sections E E, &c., (shown in Fi 3,) and F F, the. (Shown in Fig. 5.)
The upper and lower edges of the recesses D and the upper and lower ends of the sections E E, &c., and F F, &c., are provided the one with grooves and the other with projections to fit the grooves. In the present instance the grooves c are formed in the edges eel-n1 No. 352,602. (No model.)
of the recesses, and the projections f to fit the grooves are formed on the ends of the removable sections.
The removable'sections E E, &c., are each provided with numerals O 1 2, &c., and for the purposes of the present illustration represent dimes.
The numerals on the sections F F, &c., are intended to represent cents. If, therefore, the purchase amount to one cent, the body-section A bearing 0 would be selected, the removable section E, bearing 0, would be first inserted within the recess therein, and the removable section F, bearing the numeral 1, would then be inserted to complete the check.
The fitting of the removable sections to the recesses in the body-sections is intended to be such that the removable sections will be retained againstliability of accidental displacement by friction. Itis obvious, however, that retaining-springs of any well-known or approved form might be inserted to afford the desired security.
In order to provide against fraud, which might be practiced by reversing the positions of the dimes and cents sections, the cents-sections are provided with thicker edges f 011 one side corresponding to the thicker edges a b, &c., on the body-sections, and this alone would show the misplacement of the section. In case, however, the checks should be made of the same thickness throughout, and to afford still further protection against fraudulent misplacemenhthe removable sections E E, &c., and F F, &c.,may be provided upon the adjacent edges with matchmarks f which would fail to register if the dimes and cents sections were misplaced; or the said sections E E, &c., and F F, &c., might be colored differently, and numerous other distinguishing features might be employed, which For convenience the checks are movable sections, and it is also evident that the checks might be made oval or of other well-known and approved shapes instead of rectangular, as shown.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A combination-check comprising a bodysection representing one denomination and a removable portion representing another denomination, substantially as set forth.
2. A combin ation-check comprising a bod ysection having a recess in its edge and representing one denomination, and a removable section representing another denomination and having a sliding engagement into and out of the recess in the edge to complete the check, substantially as set forth.
3. A combination-check comprising a body portion provided With a recess in its edge, and
a removable section adapted' to fitwithin the said recess, the body-section and'the' removable section being provided the one with a groove and the other with a projection to enter the groove, the said sections representing different denominations of currency, substan tially as set forth.
4. A combination-check comprising a body portion recessed at its edge, and removable sections adapted to fit within the recess and provided with distinguishing marks, the bodysection and the removable sections being provided with marks indicating different denominations of currency, substantially as set forth.
