LEWIS S. FBAMBES, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
COMBINED TICKET HOLDER AND COUNTER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 14, 1909.
Application filed January 29, 1909. Serial No. 474,999.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEWIS S. FRAMBES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Ticket Holder and Counter, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improved combined ticket holder and counter, and more particularly adapted for use by street car conductors, the object of the invention being to provide improvements of this character which enable the conductor, at the end of each trip, to dispose of his tickets, and at the same time count them, insurin a perfect count of the tickets at the end of a day, and preventing all possibility of dispute between the conductor and the company as to the number of tickets turned in.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, and combinations, and arrangements of parts as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1, is a view in elevation illustrating my improvements. Fig. 2, is a view in cross section through two of the ticket holding sheets.
1 represents a backing preferably of cardboard or the like, and 2, 2, are my improved ticket holders and counters, which comprise sheets, preferably of leather, or other suitable material. On the opposite sides of the sheets 2, horizontal strips 3, preferably of leather are sewed by vertical lines of stitching 4, said lines of stitching 4L being spaced an equal distance apart, and dividing the strips 3 and sheet 2, substantially as set forth, leaving that portion of the strip between the lines of stitching unattached, so that a car ticket may be readily slipped beneath the strip and held thereby. Two of these strips, preferably extend out beyond the edges of the sheet, and are provided with eyelets 5 to receive binders 6 on the back 1, and effectually hold the sheets temporarily bound, but permit their ready removel when desired. The particular sheets shown are formed on one side or face of the sheet with twentyfive compartments or pockets. These compartments are numbered consecutively, beginning at the upper left hand corner, and the opposite side of the sheet is also provided with twenty-five compartments, which are numbered consecutively, beginning at the upper left hand corner with the numeral 26, so that the series run from the upper left hand corner of one side to the lower right hand corner on the other side, the particular sheets illustrated accommodating fifty tickets, but the invention is in no wise limited to any particular number.
When the conductor reaches the end of his trip, he takes the tickets he has collected, and.
places them in the compartments in regular order, beginning with the compartment 1, and putting a ticket in each compartment until the tickets are exhausted. On the next trip, he places the tickets collected in the next sheet, and so on, and at the end of the day he turns in his sheets and a glance at them will indicate without question the exact number of tickets. For example, in the illustration, by the first sheet which is shown turned over to the left, the conductor has collected thirty-three tickets on his first trip, and as shown by the sheet on the right he has collected but nineteen tickets on the second trip. If this is all the trips he makes, it is simply necessary to add thirty-three and nineteen together to find out just how many tickets the conductor has collected. This is a fact which the conductor and the company both take into consideration, and there is no possibility of dispute arising as to the number of tickets turned in.
Various slight changes might be made in the general form and arrangement of parts described without departing from my invention, and hence I do not restrict myself to the precise details set forth, but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of my invention.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In a combined ticket holder and counter, the combination with two sheets, strips secured on both sides of each sheet, two of said strips on each sheet connected together, said strips divided by lines of stitching forming ticket compartments, the compartments on each sheet numbered in regular numeric order, beginning with the numeral 1 at the left hand upper corner of one side of each sheet, and continuing in regular order to the lower right hand corner of the opposite side of said sheet, said compartments adapted to re- In testimony whereof I have signed my ceive tlckets, beginnmg first W1th the comname to this specifieatlon 1n the presence of partment numbered 1 and filhng said comtwo subscribmg wltnesses.
