MYERS, OF YORK, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIG'NOR TO LESCHEY MYERS CIGAR BOX COMPANY, OF YORK,- PENNSYLVANIA, A CORPORATION OF DELAWARE CIG-AR BOX Originall application filed .Tuly 10, 1924, Serial No. 725,189. Divided andthis application led May 23,
. 1928. Serial No. 279,983.
vMy invention is designed to provide an economicalmethod of producing a cigar box by rendering unnecessary the production of the box out of the expensive cedar wood generally used, by providing a covering of paper for the outside of the box simulating the cedar of which cigar boxes are usually made.
In carrying out iny invention I preferably provide one sheet for the bottom, ends and sides, the sheet being cut at the corners to permit folding, and I ornament the sheet with strips along each edge as well as around the top with edgings so that the body of the box is covered with a single sheet of paper, the topvof the edging folding over the upper exposed top edges of the box on the front and ends. This covering for the box may be applied in any suitable manner.
The lidk of the box is covered in the same manner, but I may use two sheets,` one for the outer face of the lid, made upof a bodymaterial in simulation of the cedar wood, and the other for the underface decorated with the customary trade label made up with an integral edging which may fold over to cover the exposed ends of the lid at the front and ends.
I provide a lining for the box in one piece cut atthe corners and fitted snugly to the interidr of the box.
In the drawings I have shown in Figure 1 a blank illustrating the covering for the outer part of the body of the box.
In Figures 2 and 3 I show the covers for the lid, inner and outer, and
In Figure 4 I show the blank for the inner lining. n .r
In Figure 5 I show the blank for covering the hinge of the lid thereby joining the top cover with the covering forthe outer part.
In Figure 6 I show a box and a lid with l my improvements embodied therein.
In Figure 7 I show a sectional view taken on line 7-7 of Figure 6.
In the drawings the part marked a covers the bottom of the box, the part marked b the front, c and d the ends, and e the back. The edgings are shown at f. The back iap e has a cut-away portion indicated at n, which is adapted to straddle the hinge m ordinarily used between the back of the box and the box top. Each of the four iiaps b, c, d, and e is notched as at 0, at its corners s0 that each flap may be folded up over the top of its .respective wall and down the inside thereof clearing the wall on each side. The blank for the lid of the box is shown at g, and the blank for the inner face of the lid shown at with the edgings at lc and 7c. In use, the edging strip c is adapted to be folded up over the front edge of the cover onto the lid top, the strips 7c being likewise folded over the end edges of the lid and onto the top. The lower label extension p may be secured to the rear wall of the box proper and is ordinarily turned forwardly from the rear edge of the lid over the upper edge of the rear wall of the box, then downwardly and secured to the inner face of the rear wall as shown in Figure 7. The blank for the inner lining of the box is shown at Z. The blank for covering the hinge is shown at m,
I am aware that it has been proposed to make ci ar boxes of paper covered with a lining o paper and a partial inner lining, but it is not possible practically to make a cigar box of pasteboard, due to the fact that the cigars are damp when they are put into the box, and the pasteboard acts as a blotter absorbing the moisture and rendering the cigars unt for use, and to the further fact that in lling the box they require pressure which a paper box cannot withstand.
I have aimed to utilize a wooden box with all its advantages, and yet to utilizea cov ering which so resembles the expensive cedar as to be a satisfactory substitute and enable ythe box to be made of cheaper wood. By
providing the covering paper with panels in imitation of the cedar wood, surrounded by ornamental edgings all in one piece, I am enabled to provide a very economical covering and yet an attractive one, very readily applied by known means. The inner lining is just as quickly applied and covers theentire inner walls of the box, except the lid which is within as well as without covered by sheets as shown in the drawings, comprising body portions in imitation of the cedar wood and having margins of edging strips.
The covering sheets being died or cut out, the edging design registers in the proper position on the box permitting the covering sheets to ,'be applied to the box by persons without any previous ,experience vwhereas at present trained skilled operatives are required to attach the edging strips and other covering panels. The wooden box being entirely covered with paper is thereby reinforced and strengthened. The paper covering the entire box both externally and internally closes the pores of the wood thereby sealing the box and retarding the escape of moisture from the cigars and keeps them in a better condition for use.
This application 'is a division of my copending application No. 725,189.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. In combination with a flat lid for acigar box, a combined label and edging blank having a main portion covering one face of the lid and provided with edging tongues on three sides extending aro-und three edges of the lid and onto the other face of the lid,- the remaining edge of the lid being' exposed for the attachment of a hinging strip.
2. In combination with a cigar box and a lid, a combined label and edging blank having a main portion covering one face of the lidl and provided with tongues on three sides extending around three edges of the lid and onto the other face of the lid, anda label extension for attachment to the rear wall o-f the box and a separate hinge element for box and lid.
3. The combination with a box body and a lid hinged thereto, of a combined labeling and edging blank having a main portion secured to one face of the lid, edging portions extending from the main portion around the edges of the three sides of the lid and onto the other side of the lid, and a label extension extending from the main portion downwardly and secured to the rear wall of the box body, and a separate hinge element for box and 4. As a new article of manufacture, a covering for the lid of a cigar box, comprising a unitary piece of Iaper adapted to cover one face of the lid, aps. on three sides thereof adapted to extend around three edges of the lid and onto the other face thereof, and a fourth iap adapted to be'A secured to the rear wall of the box carrying the lid.
