JOHN S. SUVA, O1? CLEVELAND, OHIO.
BLOTTEB ATTACHMENT FOR CHECK-BOOKS AND RECEIPT-BOOKS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented @et. 24, 1916.
Application filed April 1, 1916. Serial no. 88,186.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN S. Suva, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Blotter Attachments for Check-Books and Receipt- Books; and I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to an improvement in blotter attachments for check books, receipt books and the like.
The object of the invention is to provide a blotter attachment by means of which the stub of the check or receipt may be readily blotted as well as the check or receipt, and which will also serve to separate the stub of the used check from the unused stub of the next check.
A further object of the invention is to provide a blotter attachment having such an arrangement that a portion of the blotter can be employed to hold the old stubs and the main portion of the blotter out of contact with a new stub after it has been filled in and while the check is being written out.
Vith these objects in view and with the intention of securing other advantages which will hereinafter appear, my invention consists in the features of construction and combination of parts hereinafter described in the specification, particularly pointed out in the claim and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a check book having my blotter attachment secured thereto. Fig. 2 is a side view showing the flap of the blotter supporting the main body of the blotter above the face of the checkand also holding the used stubs out of contact with the stub which has just been filled in. Fig. 3 is a side View of the check book closed.
Again referring to the drawings, 5 represents the binding strip of a receipt or check book, each leaf of which comprises a stub 6 and a detachable slip 7 of the usual con struction. The blotter attachment comprises a main body portion, which is preferably formed in two sections 8 and 9, which are cloth or other suitable material, shown at 10, which permits the blotter to be folded together with the leaves of the book in order that the same may fit conveniently into the pocket when it is desired to carry the same. To the section 9 of the blotter and on the inner face thereof, at a distance from the binding strip 10 slightly greater than the length of a stub of a check, is secured a flap 12, which is also made of blotting paper. This flap is secured to the main blotter preferably by a strip 13 of cloth or other suitable material so as to form a permanent and strong hinge connection.
The advantages of my improved blotter attachment can be readily understood. After the first check or receipt has been filled in and removed from the book the stub is folded back between the flap 12 and the blotter section 9 and therefore the flap 12 extends between the used stub and the next stub which is to be filled in. Therefore when the second stub is used, in order to blot the same it is only necessary to fold down the main blotter together with the flap and the stub and check can be blotted at one time.
It is also well known to those in the habit of using small check books that after a number of checks have been used the stubs which remain have a tendency to close down on the stub which is being filled in and also to cause the attached outer cover or blotter to fold down on the check which is being filled in. With my improved blotter this can be readily prevented by causing the free end of the flap 12 to rest on the stub of the check which has just been filled in and the said flap will then form a support which holds the used stubs out of contact with the stub which has been filled in and also supports the main blotter in such a position that it does not interfere with the filling in of the check, but at the same time is in position to be readily folded down to blot the check when desired.
What I claim is The combination with a check or receipt book comprising a series of leaves bound together, each leaf consisting of a stub and a separable check or receipt section of a blotter comprising a body portion and a flap portion, said body portion having one end edge secured to the bound edge of the l bOOk and said flap being secured to the body secured together by means of a strip 015% portion along a line intermediate of the free end edge of the body portion and the bound In testimony whereof, I sign the foregoend edge of the body portion and at a dising specification, in the presence of two tance from the bound edge of the book Witnesses.
greater than the length of the stub portion JOHN S. SUVA. of a leaf, said flap portion being arranged Witnesses:
to extend toward the bound edge of the VICTOR C. LYNCH,
book. B. C. BROWN.
