June 27, 1950 H. L. TWEED 2,513,219 COMBINED CRIBBAGE BOARD AND CARDHOLDER Filed June 24, 1946 IIIIIllillllillllnllllllll Henry L- mead- Patented June 27, 1950 COMBINED CRIBBAGE BOARD AND CARDHOLDER Henry L. Tweed,
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada;
Arthur Eaton Johnston administrator of said Henry L. Tweed,
deceased Application June '24, 1946, Serial No. 678,838 1 Claim. (01. 273-148) My invention relates to improvements in cribbage boards, an object of the invention being to provide a cribbage board of the character herewithin described by means of which duplicate cribbage may be played, or in other words, a game of cribbage in which, when the hands in the rows of compartments have all been played, the board is turned around and the same hands played by the opposite players after which a total is made of the score which each player has made in playing the two sides.
With the foregoing objects in view, and such other objects and advantages as Will become apparent to those skilled in the art to which this invention relates as this specification proceeds, my invention consists essentially in the arrangement and construction of parts all as hereinafter more particularly described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved cribbage board.
Figure 2 is a plan view of an end fragment of my cribbage board enlarged by comparison with Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a longitudinal cross section on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a cross section on the line 44 of Figure 1.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures.
My invention consists of an elongated, rec-- tangular cribbage board preferably foldable about a pair of transversely disposed hinges I and 2 to reduce its length when not in use, the said board being divided into sets of compartments 2a, 21), etc., and 3a, 319, etc., there being twelve compartments to each set in the board illustrated and which I consider to be a convenient number although I do not desire to be confined to such a number.
The compartments 2a, 3a, 2b, 3b, etc., are mutually opposed, and each opens on to one or other edge of the board for the convenient insertion of playing cards 4 at a slight incline by virtue of the narrow edge-flanges 5.
The compartments are transversely bounded, by the dividers 6, and supported upon these dividers is a pair of spaced and parallel, apertured pegging strips 1 and 8 extending the length of the board, the apertures 9 in said pegging strips being divided into sets of ten within the produced planes of each pair of adjacent dividers 6. The strips 7 and 8 correspond with respect to the arrangement of the apertures in sets of ten, with the bage board.
The foregoing elements are mounted upon a base-board and extending centrall and longitudinally of the base-board is a multiconstituting one component of what I designate as a series of aligned crib-card holders or rests, the other components consisting of the transverse bridge-pieces It.
The notches l3 and the bridge-pieces l2 support the crib-cards I i overlappingly and in clinably as to the edges and the surfaces thereof respectively.
Having now described the construction of my cribbage board its use in play will be explained. My cribbage board is intended to hold three complete decks of cards, it being understood that as indicated in Figure 1 there are twelve compartments at each side designed to hold six cards while twelve crib cards are lined up in the cribbage holders as per Figure 2. This makes a total of one hundred and fifty-six cards and it will be understood that each pack is dealt first on one side of the board and then on the other in hands of six, which hands are placed in the compartments face down. The hands are now played as in ordinary cribbage after each player has drawn his hand out of the proper compartment and discarded the usual two cards of the board. The crib and remains in its crib conventional form of cribcard is then turned up holder.
When the hand has been played the six cards are picked up and placed back in the compartment from which they were taken face down and the crib card in that hand is also turned down again.
Pegging for points is proceeded with as in ordinary cribbage and it is to be understood that the pairs of hands in each opposing pair of compartments are progressively played proceeding from one end of the board to the other.
At the end of the board one half game may be considered as having been played and the board is now turned around so that the opposite player proceeds to play with exactly the same hands as his opponent had in the first half. At the conclusion of the whole game the players scores are totalled and the highest score wins.
Since various modifications can be made in my invention as hereinabove described and many apparently widely different embodiments of same made within the scope of the claim without departing from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the acompanying' specification shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense and I desire only such limitations placed thereon as are specifically expressed in the accompanying claim.
What I claim as my invention is:
An elongated; rectangular cribbage board comprising in combination a set of open-ended card compartments upon each side thereof, said sets being mutually opposed, each compartment opening onto one or other edge of said board and being transversely bounded by 'dividers, a series of aligned crib-card rests between said sets of compartments, said rests each comprising two components to support the crib-cards inclinably, one component consisting of a centrally and longitudinally disposed and notched rack en gaging an edge of a crib card, and the other consisting of a transverse bridge-piece engaging a surface of a crib-card, said. bridge-pieces overlying the inner ends of cards in said compartments, and a pair of parallel and apertured pegging strips extending between said crib-card rests and the open outer ends of said compartments and overlying the inner e ds of said compartments.
HENRY L. TWEED.
