T oV aZZ whom it man] concern.
-Be' 1t known that' I, Ennoxo Hnc'ron Coarse, a citizen of the United States', re-
siding at Chattanooga, in the .county of IIainilton and State of Tennessee, have iuvented certain new *and useful Improve ments in CouponBooks; and I do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as -ivill enable others skilled'in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to coupon or similar books, and has for an objectl -tol provide means iyhereby coupons of the desired denomination'become readily accessible. ,A further object of the invention` 4is to provide in book form coupons ofa plurality .of denominations, and of substantially the same size, but so mounted in a book that the ends of coupons ofl different. denominations 'are 'visible Whenthe cover of the book is open.
Specifically the object of the invention is to provide in book form a plu 1ality of leaves each embodying a plurality of couy pons and representing a plurality of denominations and so arranged that when the front cover of the book is open, leaves of coupons ofv different denominations are visible.
Vith 'theseland other objects in view, the invention comprises certain novel constructions, ycombinations and arrangements of parts, as Will be .hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the drawings-Figure 1 is a view of anlembodiment of the4 present invention shown With the cover open exhibiting` one.
leaf of coupon in full and the ends of other leaves of coupons of other denominations.
Fig. 2 is a View in edge elevation of the coupon book with the leaves separated at. the outer ends showing the dilfercnce in lengt-hs lof such groups of leaves. j
Like characters of reference designate corresponding parte throughout the several views.
In the ordinary binding' of books of coupons, tickets or the like, which are composed of leaves of theV coupons or tickets perforated to be separated singly or as the case may be, and of different denominations, is customary to produce the leaves of similar lengths and when it is desired to remove a coupon of a required denomination, 1t is necessary to turn the leaves to find such coupons. As coupons are ordinarily handled by busy people the waste of time thus einployed, While inconsiderablc in a single case,
objectionable and in 'the long' run amounts to an objectionable feature.
In the present inst-ance, in Ilig. l is illustrated a book contaii'iing coupons of three denominations, twenty-tive cents, ten cents and -iive cents, and as shown at Fig. Q two leaves of the twenty-live cents, three leaves of theteir and six leaves of the five cent coupons are bound together. Of course, it is tovbe understood thatany number of coupons 'of each denomination may be employed, Without departing from the spirit of the invention. y
As 'shown in the drawing covers l0 and ll are folded over and form a binding of a plurality of single leaves composed each of a plurality of coupons as represented on the rst leaf at l2. It is desirable that all of the coupons be similar' or substantially similarin size so that they may be properly tiled, punchedtied or otherwise stored. For this purpose the coupons upon the variousleaves are made of the same size but in binding more margin is left at the top for the coupons which appear nearer the back of the book. As shown the front leaves shown at 12 are shorter than the leaves 13 which 1n .turn are shorter than the leaves le although the coupon makingup the several leaves l2, lS-and. 14 are of the same size, the difference being in the amount of margin-left at the top or bottom ends of the leaves.
As will be apparent from an inspection of the figures the opening of the front cover 10 at once reveals in full one leaf of coupons of one denomination and the extended en ds of coupons of other denominations. If it is desired to remove from the book coupons. of denominations other than those appearing upon the first. leaf, the user has but to place his thumb or finger upon the extended end of the leaf designated by the coupon desired and by turningthe leaves in front, leaves of vcoupons of the required denomina/tion are at once made accessible. I wish it to be understood that each of the series of coupons of the book having the dili'e'rent denominations 'thereon provided with a number 1244; Fw as shown Jin Fig'. .l of the drawings; this number designates the number of the book from which thev coupons are torn so that lic refereneetothe saine may be had .if for-'any reason shouidt occasion require that it be done. Bjr this meansfrnneh time in turning eaves to' arrive at eaves of coupons of the right denomination is avoieid.
While coupons of three denominations as indicated have been shown in the drawings it is to be understood that suoh number is only indicative of the use of' the :inventionI and that any number more or less than shown would fail equaiiy within the scope of the invention'. l
What ciaiin is A coupon book comprising a piuraiity of groups of leaves provided with binding Inargins at one end and detaehably connected therewith, and divide@ by weakened .lines into a pluraiity of coupons o the same size arranged in groups, the binding margins of the severalgroups inereasing in width from the front to the back 'of the book and each leaves of said book, and the book and each of the coupons of the different groups having the same number designating the number of the book fromv which they were detached, and each group of a distinctive lcolor differ'- ent from that of the `other groups.
In testimon whereof I attbiV my signature in presence o two witnesses..
