FRANK SPILLANE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
CALENDAR FOR PENCILS, 800.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 770,613, dated September 20, 1904.
Application filed May 17, 1904. Serial No. 208,842. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, FRANK SPILLANE, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Calendar for Pencils, Penholders, and Like Articles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of the invention is to provide a new and improved calendar for pencils, penholders, and like articles arranged to permit the user of the pencil, penholder, or like article to have ready reference at any time to the calendar for obtaining a desired date of the present month, the calendar being very simple in construction and easily applied to the article.
The invention consists of novel features and parts and combinations of the same, as will be more fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claims.
A practical embodiment of the invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improvement, showing the calendar sealed. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the same, showing the calendar extended; and Fig. 3 is a face View of the calendar detached.
A strip A of very thin paper or like flexible material is provided on one face with a calendar giving the dates of a year, the sections A of the strip for each month of the year being separated by transverse rows of perforations A as plainly indicated in Fig. 3. The flexible strip A is made tapering, and its base end, having the month of December thereon, is pasted, glued or otherwise fastened to the peripheral face of a pencil B at or near the butt end thereof, as plainly illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2, and the strip is then wound around or coiled, so that each section A forms one convolution. The outermost sec tion A, containing the month of January, is provided with a terminal A preferably gummed on the under side and wound around so as to be fastened upon itself by the gummed portion to seal the calendar, as plainly indi cated in Fig. 1, and for convenient shipment of the article containing the calendar. By making the strip A tapering it is evident that when it is wound or coiled the adjacent edges of the convolutions overlap, and these overlapping edges are fastened together by glue, paste, or other adhesive substance, to prevent the convolutions from unwinding unless force is applied.
The buyer of a pencil, penholder, or like article having a calendar as described thereon first detaches the terminal A from the first section A, so as to unseal the calendar, thereby leaving the first section A, having the month of January forming the first convolution, to permit the user of the pencil to have reference to any date in the month whenever it is desired to do so. When the month has passed, the operator takes hold of the free end of the displayed section and by a slight pull detaches the same from the next adjacent section, having the month of February, and unwinds the first section until he reaches the perforation A separating the first section from the second section and then tears off the first section, (see Fig. 2,) so as to leave the second section having the month of February displayed on the article for reference to any date thereof whenever desired.
It is understood that by having the overlying edges of the several sections fastened together by the adhesive substance each displayed section remains coiled in position until the month has passed, and this section is detached along its edges from the edges of the following section and detached from the same along the perforations A as above described.
A calendar constructed in the manner described can be cheaply manufactured and readily applied to the article and allows the user of the pencil to have convenient reference to a date of the present month, the calendar forming no obstruction or hindrance to the legitimate use of the pencil, penholder, or like article on which the calendar is applied.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. The combination with a pencil, penholder or like article, of a flexible tapering strip provided with a calendar and secured at its widest end to the said article, to be wound thereon, the strip being in sections separated by rows of perforations, each section approximately forming one convolution around the article.
2. The combination with a pencil, penholder or like article, of a flexible tapering strip provided with a calendar and secured at its widest end to the said article, to be wound thereon, the strip being in sections separated by rows of perforations, each section approximately forming one convolution around the article, and the overlapping edges of the sections being adhesively secured together.
3. The combination with a pencil, penholder or like article, of a flexible tapering strip provided with acalendar and secured at its widest end to the said article, to be wound thereon, the strip being in sections separated by rows of perforations, each section approximately forming one convolution around the article, the strip having a blank terminal at its narrowest end, for sealing the calendar portion of the strip and securing the latter in place. i
4. The combination with a pencil, penholder or like article, of a flexible tapering strip provided with a calendar and secured at its widest end to the said article, to be wound there on, the strip being in sections separated by rows of perforations, each section approximately forming one convolution around the article, the strip having a blank terminal at its narrowest end, for sealing the calendar portion of the strip and securing the latter in place, and the overlapping edges of the sections being adhesively secured together.
5. The combination with a pencil, penholder or like article, of a flexible tapering strip provided with a calendar and secured at its widest end to the said article, to be wound thereon, the strip being in sections separated by rows of perforations, each section approximately forming one convolution around the article and each section containing a calendar month and the overlapping edges of the sections being ,adhesively secured together;
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
. FRANK SPILLANE.
