INVENTOR UNITED STATES GEORGE A. FALL, OF HOBOKEN, NEW JERSEY.
IMPROVEMENT IN SIGNS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 132,82 l, dated November 5, 1872.
tween the different parts, or else the wood will crack and mar the appearance of the sign. Metal has been employed and the surface painted, but the paint is liable to scale off, and in case of a blow the metal is dented and the paint cracked.-
My invention consists of a sign made with thick paper-such as card-board, straw-board,
' or mill-board--fastened upon a wooden frame with suitable surrounding moldings and saturated with water proof materialsuch as paint-and upon which the letters or numbers of the sign are painted.
- A sign constructed in this manner is a new article of manufacture that is superior to those heretofore made, because it is not liable to changes under atmospheric influences, and
the entire surface of a sign of large dimcn sions can be made without joints by employing the aforesaid paper made in a roll of the required size.
In the drawing I have represented my improvement by a vertical section of the sign.
The frame a is of a size and shape adapted to the place where the sign isto be used. The thick paper or pasteboard bis nailed to the said frame, first, however, having been coated with water-proofmaterialsuch as paint, shellac, or other suitable substance. The moldings d are also employed for covering the edges of the paper and securing them more firmly. The surface of the sign is painted with the required letters, figures, or characters.
I claim as my invention- A sign made of thick paper, rendered water-proof, secured upon a wooden frame, painted and lettered as set forth.
Signed by me this 6th day of June, A. D. 1872.
GEORGE A. FALL.
