UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE CHARLES OUTLER, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO FRANK N. SIIAV, OF SAME PLACE.
PHOTOGRAPHERS RETOiUCHlNG AND MARKING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 456,555, dated July 28, 1891.
Applieatioutlled February l2, 1891. Serial No. 381,140. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES CUTLER, a citi- Zen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Photographers Retouching and Marking Apparatus; and I do hereby declare the following to bea full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertaius to make and use the same.
My invention relates to photographers retouching and marking' apparatus, and has for its object to provide an efficient device for use in retouching and marking negatives. To this end I mount on the retouchers stand an adjustable negative-holder, whereby the negative may be swung' to any desired angle. The form of adjustable holder` which I prefer, and have shown in the drawings, is one which is revoluble in the plane of the support and may be held to permit this movement by any suitable means-such as, for example, keepers fixed to the support and engaging with an annular flange on the holder. The support which I prefer an have designed for use with my holder is an adjustable easel capable ot'being folded into compact compass, the construction for the purpose consisting of two sections pivotally connected, one of which serves as a base-plate and the other of which is adjustable therefrom and may be held at any desired angle by a brace-bar pivotally attached to the baseplate at one end and having notches at its other end capable of engagement with laterally-projecting lugs on the adjustable section. On the adjustable section I place an adjustable canopy-holder, which may consist of an ordinary baillike bracket working through keepers provided with setscrews. The adjustable section of the easel is either a skeleton-like frame or else is cut away at its central portion for the admission of light upon the back of the negative. rlhe negative-holder is provided with a rectangular seat for the negative and may be adapted to any sized negative by suitable Iilling-pieces of the ordinary construction. (Not shown.)
The device is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like letters ret'er to like parts throughout.
Figure l is a side elevation of the device. Fig. 2 is a plan view of thedevice when the parts are folded together. Figs. 3 and -l are sections7 the former on the lineX X and the latter on the line Y Y of Fig. 2.
A B O is the easel., ot which A is the baseplate, B the adjustable section, and C the notched brace.
l) are the lateral lugs on the section I3 for engaging with the notches c on the brace C.
D is the canopy-holder.
E are the keepers, and l working therein.
F is the negative-holder, provided with a peripheral iange f, and G are the keepers fixed to the face oi' the section B, engaging with the flange f.
f is the panel-like seat for receiving the negative,
Instead of the keepers and flange, it will ot course be understood that any other suitable devices may be employed for mounting the holder F, so as to permit the same to bc revolved for adjusting the negative.
The use of this device is obvious. The operator having placed the negative in position can readily adjust it into any desired position with reference to the light or his own convenience for retouching or marking the picture without taking the negative from its seat. Iflitherto, so far as I am aware, this adjustm ent of the negative has been made on a fixed support by removing the negative and replacing it in the different required positions. It was secured in its positions by tacking. To make the different adjustments,
the set-screws therefore, required considerable loss ot' time; 9o
What I claim, and desire to secure by holder, and the canopy-holder mountedl on the 1o Letters Patent of the United States, is as 'foladjustable section of the easel, substantially lows: as described.
