the pivots E E of the upright shaft F. Around the lower portion of this shaft I'fastena series of shelves, G G, the lower one being large enough to turn conveniently inside the case and the others gradually smaller in succession to the top one, which has a piece of tin, H, looped around it to receive the stems of iiowers, as shown in the drawing, or other articles to be shown and exhibited.
The shelf G next to the top one has the rail ing I around it to support and hold such articles as may be put upon it. for exhibition, and the shelf G next to the lower one has brackets J around it tohold cards of buttons or other articles for exhibition. Each of the shelves G may be provided with a ange, as
shown at KK, to prevent the articles put on them from rolling off when the shelves are turned.
Above the shelves I make a frame or rack by fastening four arms, L L, to the shaft F, in the position shown in the drawing, and connect the upper ends of the arms by a circular hoop, M, and perforate the arms L for the series of hoops N N, which are made grad-V ually smaller, as shown in the drawing. Upon all these hoops or rings samples of cloths, ribbons, or other articles may be hung for exhibition, and there may be a broad shelf inside of 'the hoop M, on which the rolls or pieces of goods may be laid with one end hanging over the hoop. This frame and the shelves belowT it are most admirably adapted to show a great variety of goods of various kinds and exhibit them to purchasers to 'great advantage without the liability of their being injured by handling, or by dust collecting on them, the case being glazed with iine glass and the door P closed and locked to keep the goods safe from illes or other depredators.
When it is desirable, one of the pivots may be made to project through the case at the top or bottom' and a crank 0I' other device applied to turn the shelves; or a bevel-gear may be fastened to the upper or lower end of the shaft F, and a pinion, with a horizontal shaft extending through the side of the case and provided with a crank, may be arranged to turn the shelves and fra-me.
If it vis desirable to have the shelves and frame kept in motion, a clck-movement may be arranged to turn the shaft, and applied under the shelves or at the top of the case.
What claim as my invention and improvement in the above-described showcase for exhibiting goods is- The revolving shelves and rack or frame, constructed and arranged substantially as described, for the purpose set forth.
