MQ %W/'7a V 6 MYC WW UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICEQ HENRY LUERS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
GAME APPARATUS O R SECTIONAL CHECKER-BOARD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 231,963, dated September '7, 1880,
Application filed August '7, 1880. (N 0 model.)
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HENRY LUERS, of New York, in the county and State'ot' New York, have invented a new. and Improved GameApparatus or Sectional Checker-Board, of which the following is a specification.
Figure l is a face View of my game apparatus; Fig. 2, a sectional view of the same.
This invention relates to a new sectional checker-board made of fifteen (more or less) pieces, each of which pieces is shaped to contain one or more complete squares of the board, the several pieces being of difierent forms and sizes, so as to render it very diiii cult to the uninitiated to make up the complete board from the setof pieces that constitute it, thus affording much amusement and en'iployment of time to those who have no bet ter use for it.
In the drawings, the letters A B O D, &c., represent the several sections, which, it put in the order shown in Fig. 1, will constitute a complete checker-board, but which, as before stated, will be found quite difficult to putinto said order. Each of the pieces or sections contains full squares of the board-that-is to say the board is divided not by lines crossing any one square, but solely by lines which are drawn between the squares. Thus the piece A has two white squares and one black, the piece B two white squares and three black, the piece (J three black squares and two white, &c.
One of the principal difliculties in properly placing the pieces will he the necessity of so matching them that the black and whi te squares will properly alternate throughout the board, as they should on a checker-board. v
The sections may be composed each ofsquares ofdifierently-colored wood properly glued or joined together, or the squares may be marked upon the sections by painting them, or by gluing thereto a paper surface properly colored, or otherwise.
' I claim- The sectional checker-board composed of series of difterently-iorined sections, A B O D, &c., each section containing one or more full squares of theboard, substantially as hereinbefore shown and described.
HENRY LUERS.
