PORTABLE DISPLAY OR SAMPLE BOOK.
Application filed July 2,
Sample Books, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to portable display or sample books particularly adapted for use in conveneintly. displaying samples of wall paper. Bypreference the improved portable display book will be used for samples of wall paper, but it will be understood that samples of other material maybe advantageous embodied in the improved book for display purposes.
One object of the invention is to provide a portable display book having flexible covers and arranged to accommodateacomparatively large 'VOlllHlG of material or display sheets of the same or varying sizes and with a novel form of binding or back-securing means for the sample leaves or components.
A further object of the invention is to provide a portable displaybook forsamples of the character specified having a novel form of flexible handle attached to the back or binding portion of the book, and also to associate with the opposite loose ends of the leaves and covers a securing means whereby the book during transportation may be preserved in proper shape and easily handled and rendered accessible.
WVith these and other objects and advantages in view, the invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.

and 5. I
Fig. 7 is a detail perspective view of. portions of the covers of the improved book,
showing modifications of the fastening means.
Fig. 8 1s a perspectlve view of portions of the .covers for the book, showing a further modification of the fastening means.
The numeral 5 designates front andrear flexible covers between which are arranged V a plurality of sheets or leaves 6 in the formv of samples of wall paper or other material, which may be of the same or varying sizes or include borders or trimmings, the said covers 5 and leaves or sheets G'being tightly bound together at one end and having interposed therebetween relatively stiff binding.
strips or members 7, 8 and 9, through which are passed suitable fastening devices 10, said fastening devices being shown by dotted lines in 1 and by full lines in Fig. 2. The leaves'orsheets 6 have their edges coincident with the edges of the strips 7, 8 and9, so as to produce a compact and neat appearance,
the strips 7 and 9'being applied to the outer sides of the bound ends of the leaves or sheets and the strip 8 disposed atan inter- V mediate or central point relatively to the same ends of the leaves or sheets. bound ends of the leaves or sheets and the strips 7, 8 and. 9 an outer finishing binding strip 11 issecured andymay be of anysuitable material, preferably fabric; The inter-' Over the mediatestrip o-r bindingmember 8, as shown by Fig.2, is formed with'two rearwardly opening transverse slots 12, the slots extend-.
.ing only partially through thetransverse ex'-.
tent 'of the strip orlbinding member 8'so. that the end walls of the said slots are lo-:
cated in advance of the front edge of the strip 8, to'p'rovide' seats for the fiat ends 13 of a flexible handle or grip 14 ofleather,
canvas, or any other suitable material. The ends 13 are given a quarter turn, as at. 15,
soas to arrange thesaid ends in horizontalpositions for insertion in the rear open .ter-:
minals-of the slot l-g f theliintermediate binding strip oplmember, ,n,
no strip of I p ends of the bound leaves or sheets and the members 7, 8 and 9 and openings 17 in the ends 13, and by this means the handle 14: is securely fixed in the bound end of the book. The handle 14 is disposed centrally with re lation to the bound end of the book for balancing the latter when carrying the same, and
by giving the strip forming the handle quarter turns as at 15, as above explained, the body of the handle engaged by the hand of the person carrying the book will present a fiat surf-ace for engagement of the hand,
- with material advantage in comfort to the carrier during transportation of the book. By having the strip forming the handle 14 of such dimensions as to flushly fit the slots 12 and the provision of the latter slots to receive the ends 13, a close regular binding assemblage is produced without irregular projections or distortions at the points where the handle ends are inserted in the bound end of the book. Thought-he particular manner of applying the handle to the book as above described is preferred, it will be understood that the handle ends 13 may be disposed'in the bound end of the book by first inserting a chisel or analogous implement into this end of the book to form openings or seats for the handle ends and then applying the fastening devices 16.
As hereinbefore specified the covers 5' are flexible and with the leaves may be readily opened and turned back to fully display the various patterns embodied in the leaves or sheets, and during transportation of the book it is obvious that it is of material advantage to hold the free edges of the covers and leaves or sheets in close associated relation, so as to maintain the book in regular form and also prevent injury to the loose ends of the covers or leaves. For this purpose several different forms of fastening means are provided, and that shown by F ig. 1 consists in applying' to the outer sides of the covers on opposite sides of the center opposed flexible fastening strips 18 and 19, thestrips 18 carrying suitable sockets 20 and the strips 119 spring studs 21, as shown by Figs. 5 and 6. In the form of the fastening shown by Figs. 4, 5 and 6 the single strips 18 and 19 shown by Fig. 1 are replaced by doubled strips 22 and 23, which respectively carry the spring sockets and studs '20 and 21 of the same form as those used in connection with the fastening shown by Fig. 1. The doubled strips 22 and 23are secured against the outer and innersides of the flexible covers 5. in Fig.
In the form of the fastening shown by Fig.
8 a doubled strip 25 is secured to and extends the full width of the one cover 5 and has a plurality of the spring sockets 20 to separably engage spring studs 21 secured to the remaining cover 5. These various forms of fastening devices are intended to illustrate that a flexible means of a strong and durable character may be used in either single or double and separable intermediately with relation to the loose ends of the covers and leaves or sheets, or extend from one cover fully across andv separably con nected to the remaining cover, either in strips disposed on opposite sides of the center of the loose ends of the covers and leaves or sheets or in continuous form, to fully protect or shield the ends of the covers and leaves or sheets.
It will be understood that the proportions of the covers and sheets may be varied in accordance with the requirements of the sample book and the character of the samples embodied therein, and under all conditions of modification as to proportions and dimensions the same essential features of the invention will be preserved, and which consist of a single carrying handle bound in the end of the book and of a flexible character, and flexible fastening means of a simple form applied to the free ends of the covers and leaves or sheets.

1. A portable display or sample book of the class specified, having flexible covers and leaves bound at one end with the covers, the bound end of the book having binding strips applied to the flexible covers and leaves in spaced relation, and a flexible handle having the ends inset and secured within the intermediate bindingstrip and held firmly between the bound leaves.
