s'rnrrorr. Am) FRAME.

To all whom it may concern: .Be it known that I, lionnn'r STANLEY l B'OLGER, a citizen oi the United States, residing at Riohrnond'llill, New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stencils and Frames, oi" which'the following is a clear, full, and exact description.

The object of this invention is to provide an improved stencil and frame for the same which will be simple, cheap and. cllicient, i which will allow the use of thin paper For the stencil card, such as is adapted for perforation by needle type of a typewriter machine. In carrying out the invention I make use of a stencil frame having the ordinary stencil a erture and having channels or grooves a ong one or more of its sides for the receplon itudinal slot, referabl b bonding u g I l y a l wardly and downwardly towards theirarne. The stencil cards are provided with bindings along its edges to produce an enlarged edge Whichwill not pull out through the restrictedopeniug, bu will be freely slidable longitudmallywit n the channel. These enlarged binding edgesmay be formed by turnin the" paper upon itself or by applying an additional sin to the edge. e scope of my invention will be more particularly pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1' is a perspective View of my preferred form of stencil card with attache Fig. 2 is a-perspective View of the frame with parts broken away; Fig. 3 is a section on line Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is a View similar to Fig. 3 but Specification of Letters Patent.

binding strips;

with a modified form of card and binding in place; and Fig. 6 is a S1Il11ltL1V1G\'V to F igs. 3

and a still different form of bin' ing strip.

Referring to Figs. .1 and 6 and particularly to Figs. 1 and 4, inclusive, my improved stencarrylng punched or otherwise perforated ,or embossed stencil letters or t pes. Along each of the longitudinal sides ailiX prefercard board paper or similar binding material, such as 2.

The frame is composed ofchannels 3, 4 them up'and' the sheet to nati e.

strips 3 and 4 arebent downwardly'to form restricted longitudinal apertures in the side channels or grooves and l.

The entrance end I form by flan ing over the nietalof the end strip 8, thus orminga flange 11 cutting the flange 11 out at 9 and depressing the same to allow the bindin strips to pass over the flange, denting it in a .10 to form a stop l orthe stencil l... I also prefer to make the flange ll of the same width as the underneath end strip 8.

it will thus be seen that the stencil frame 15 an open traine, Wltll a channel or groove surrounding the opening, wherein a stencil i may be held witl'i one end abutting against the stop 16 when slipped into the position 5 shown in the drawings.

In the modification of Fig. 5 l have shown the saine style of frarne as that before described, but the binding instead of beln formed by pasting a'stri thereto, is tonne g by creasing and folding t is paper upon itself as shown at 12 where the paper is double creased. In "this condition it may be pasted or not.

In Fig. 6 the paper is given a rollat the 'g'5 es and-the stencil frame is providedwith ed cy indrical rooves 14 from which lips 15 pro ject para'riie with. the frame restricted openings.-

In each of the I scribed, the stencil sheetwith its bindings along its long sides may be fed over the end flange, the sheet passing through the restricted longitudinal openin s. of-the rooves, while the bindiii? snug y within t e grooves'and hold the s eet tairaacross the frame. The

inner short edge of the sheet passes Within the folded end, and by slightly shifting the 16 to form the three modifications desheet towards its entrance end afterthat end has passed the ,fiange, such e nd may be' housed and protected beneath said flange. The sheet may be readily removed byslip hack and pressing it upfront beneath .1? allow I atl claim is: 1. A stencil frame har in slilegrooves'or. channels for the cards, ani et flail e 118N135- he slipped out other til fl ldii.

channels, whereb a eard may be passed over the end flange W ile being inserted into the side channels.

2. A stencil frame having side grooves or channels for the cards, an inlet flange having a lip at the'eenter of the forward edge and depressed at the ends adjacent to the side fchennels, wherebi; a card may be passed over the end flange w side channels, a frame flange of the same Widt as said flange.

ile being inserted into the 1 ortion beneath said 10 Si ned at New York city this 17th day of A'pri 1907.
