lNvENToR Mime/amm #ib ATTORNEY UNITED STATES`- PATENT OFFICE.
KNUTE ERICKSON,I OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
BOOK-MARK.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, KNUTE ERICKSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Book-Marks, of which the following is a full,
clear, and exact specification.
My invention relates to improvements in means for marking or indicating pages or particular portions of pages of books, and the same has for its object more par-v ticularly to provide a simple, efficient, reliable and inexpensive device which may be readily applied to a book to indicate a page or portion of apage without interfering with the use of the book or prevent its being placed in position upon a shelf in an upright position,
Further, said invention has for its object to provide a book-mark which may be readily adapted to books of different sizes, and which may also be secured to a book intermediate its pages as to permit of the mark proper being shifted or adjusted upon the securing means in order to indicate any portion Vof a page between the upper and lower edge thereof.
Further, said invention has for its object to provide a book-mark upon which references may be temporarily inscribed in order that a number of the same may be used conjointly as cross-'reference devices.
To the attainment of the aforesaid objects and ends my invention consists in the novel details of construction, and in the combination, connection and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described and then pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings forming' part of this specification wherein like numerals of reference indicate like parts, Figure 1 is a faceview of an open book showing book-marks constructed according to and embodying my said invention applied thereto, and Fig. 2 is a face view of the book-mark with its attaching means; the same being shown detached from a book.
In said drawings 5 designates an ordinary book, and 6 the book-marks, each of which is composed essentially of an indicating member or guide 7 and anattaching member 8. The indicating member or guide slip 7 being in the form of a thin, narrow stri or slip made of any suitable flexible material, preferably thin Celluloid andV provided at its outer end with a smaller projecting pory tion 9 upon both sides of which are marked suitable identifying characters; in the drawings the same are shown as numerals. At the inner ends of said indicating member or guide slip 7 are provided a series of V- shaped slits 10, 10 the ends of which terminate in small `circular apertures l11, 1l, arranged at `the inner ends of the prongs 12, 12.
13 denotes Vthe attaching member madeof any suit- Specification of Letters Patent.
Application tiled October 24, 1906. Serial No. 840,324.
Patented Sept. 3, 1907.
It will be observed that by means ofmy'invention the indicating devices or markers may be attached to a book without interfering with its use; and that the same when appliedA to a book do not interfere with or prevent the same being replaced upon the book shelves, and further that the device beingadjus'table, the necessity or a large number of devices designed to indicate different portions of a page is entirely obviated.
Having thus described my invention what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l 1. A book-mark comprising an endless flexible member, an indicating slip, and means arranged upon `said indicating slip for slldably attaching the same to said endless flexible member, substantially as specified.
2. A book-mark comprising a exible member, an lndieating slip, and a plurality of attaching devices arranged upon said indicating slip tor securing the same to said' exlble member, substantially as specllied.
3. A book-mark comprising a flexiblel member, an lndeating sllp, and a plurality of integralv attaching prongs arranged adjacent to one end of said indicating slip for securlng said indicating sllp to' said flexible member, suhstantlally as specified.
4. A bookmark comprising an endless flexible member, an indicating slip, and s. plurality of integral attaching .prongs havlng recesses at their inner ends adapted to receive said endless llexlble member whereby to hold said lindicating slip to its adjusted position thereon, substnn tially as specll'led.
5. Abook-mark comprising an endless elastic member, an indicating slip, and a. plurality of integral attaching prongs arranged adjacent to one end of said indicating slip for securing sald indicating slip to said endless elastic member, substantially as specied.
Signed at the city of New York, ln the county and State `o1! New York, this nineteenth day ol' October, nineteen -hundred and six.
