Application filed October 13, 1900. Serial No. 32,925. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern..-
Be it known that 1, JAMES S. OUsHMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a certain new Improved Device for the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a cheap, useful, and effective device for displaying, for instance, price-cards in showwindows and for other analogous purposes. To this end I form the device of a single piece of wire havinga flat base,upon which it stands, composed of convolutions of wire, preferably of approximately circular or of convolute formation, from the center of which rises a portion composed of parallel sections of the wire so disposed as to form a clip or clamp,within which the card, price-ticket, or other article may be received and held.
Of course the bends and. convolutions of the wire may be greatly varied in a device of this kind and yet retain the characteristics or adaptation to the uses above suggested.
The accompanying drawing is a perspective view showing a device of practical and efiective form capable of being manufactured most economically.
Starting with one end of the Wire a, it is carried around, preferably, in two or more and by preference in three approximately circular convolutions b o d of decreasing diameter. Preferably at or about the center of this formation the wire rises vertically, as at 6, then extends downwardly, as at f, then upwardly, as at 9, inside of e, and then downwardly, as at it, inside of f, these portions of the wire preferably being in the same plane. The device constructed in this manner or in substantially the same or an equivalent manner has a flat base 1) 0d, upon which it stands, and a vertical centrally-disposed clip. A card or similar article may be held in this clip by forcing its edge downwardly between 6 and f and g and 7b. When it is desired to use this device to hold. price or other cards upon books or magazines, the outer convolution b of the base may be slipped under the cover or within the leaves of the book, While the next convolution a may pass outside of the cover, the base part of the device being then clamped to the book.
I do not limit myself to the special conformation of the device illustrated and described, but claim, broadly, such a device made from a single piece of wire bent to form a supporting-base and an upright card-retaining clip.
I claim as my invention- 1. The herein-described card or price-ticket holder, formed from a single continuous piece of wire bent to form a coil constituting an extended self-supporting base, and a vertical card-retaining clip formed by coils of wire arranged in the same vertical plane, and disposed centrally With reference to the base.
2. The herein-described card or price-ticket holder made from a single continuous piece of wire bent to form a fiat, self-supporting base having a plurality of convolutions of wire arranged in the same horizontal plane, and an upright card-retaining clip made from coils of the wire arranged in the same vertical plane.
3. The herein-described card or price-ticket holder formed from a single continuous piece of wire wound in convolutions of decreasing diameter in the same horizontal plane to form a flat, self-supporting base, and then extending upwardly centrally from said base, then downwardly, then upwardly,and downwardly again in the same vertical plane to form a card-retaining clip.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
JAMES S. OUSHMAN.
