JAMES GRAHAM, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
COMBINED PENCIL-RACK AND EYEGLASS==HOOK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 381.692. dated April Application filed December 10, 1887. Serial No.257,5(32. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be itknown that 1, JAMES GRAHAM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of lVayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful breast-rack for the convenient and secure holding of writingpencils, eyeglasses, and the like, of which the following is a specification.
lily invention relates to a ready and secure way of holding at the breast small personal ariiclcs which may be frequently needed at ones occupation, such as pencils, eyeglasses, and the like. I attain this object by the mechan ism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in whioh- Figure l is a perspective view of my breastraclgniadeentircly ofspring-wire. Fig.2shows another form of pixifoeing flat, like an ordinary shawl-pin,with the spiral rack attached. Fig. 3 shows another manner of attaching the hook O.
Like parts are represented by the same let tors in the diiierent views.
The want of some convenience of this kind is obvious, especially for ladies engaged in business life, who cannot, like men, make a convenience of their ears as pencil-holdcrs,and consequently use a buttonhole of their coats or dresses for such purpose,to the great detriment and wear of the article.
My device consists of a spiral spring, A, about one inch in diameter, composed of two or more loops about one-eighth of an inch apart, made from spring-wire of about onetwentieth of an inch in diameter and fastened to the front of a pin, B, at a a. This pin may be made of-spring-wire of the same thickness as shown in Fig. 1, and when so made the wire at the points a a,where attached, are extended into hooks or snaps G C, for the purpose of holding eyeglasses and like articles; or it may be made flat, Fig. 2, like an ordinary shawl or ladys scarf-pin, with the hook or snap 0 attached to the end, asshown. The pin may be fastened to the breast either horizontally or vertically, as the spiral rack made as indicated will hold an ordinary lead-pencil securely in either position. The snap or hook may be fastened 'free to the tint pin by an eye let and nub, as shown in Fig. 3, so that it may always hang vertically, if desired.
I am aware that various devices have been patented or are in use whereby holders for pencils, eyeglasses, 82c, have been attached to the breast by means of a pin, as shown in Myerss patent, No. 56,251, dated July 10,1866; Meyerss patent, No. 171,681, dated January 4, 1876, and Jenkinss patent, dated August 10, 1880, and I hereby disclaim any invention to combinations thus shown by the state ofthe art.
What I do clairn,and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is-
The herein described device for holding pencils and similar articles, consisting of a coiled wire attached to a-suiiable pin for fastening to a garment and provided with a depending hook or hooks for supporting an eyeglass or similar article, substantially as described.
JAMES GRAHAM.
