GAM E APPARATUS.
SPECIFICA TION forming part of Letters Patent No. 609,347, dated August 16, 1898. Applicaties filednovtmber 27, 1897. serial No. 659,956. (No model.)
' To a/ZZ whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, FRIEDRICH voN I-IoLz- HAUSEN, of Graz, Styria, Austria-IfIungary, have invented a new and Improved Game Apparatus, of which the following isa full, clear, and exact description.
The object of the invention is to provide a new and improved game apparatus arranged to afford considerable amusement and to enable a player to form from the portraits of Well-known persons object lessons in character studies.
The invention consists of certainparts and details and combinations of the same, as will be fully described hereinafter and then pointed out in the claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is a face View of one of the portraits. Fig. 2 is a similar view of another of the portraits with parts broken out. Fig. 3 is a like view of the same with some of the body parts removed and others interchanged. Fig. 4 is a sectional plan view of the same on the line t 4 in Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is an enlarged perspective View of one of the removed parts.
The improved game apparatus consists of a series of trays A, each adapted to receive in its depression Al a portrait B, made of cardboard or other stiff material and cut into various parts B B2 B3 B4 B5 B6, the several parts in the various portraits being alike in shape, so that they can be readily interchanged from one portrait to another.
In order to permit a convenient removal of the pieces from the trays, I provide the trays with out-out portions A2 to allow the player to conveniently take hold of one of the said pieces and remove it from the tray.
As shown, for instance, in Fig. l, the portrait represents Bismarck, while that shown in Fig. 2 represents Napoleon III. Now the player by removing the piece B4 of the portrait shown in Fig. 2 and inserting in place thereof the piece B4 of the portrait shown in Fig. 1 will form a4 character study, as indicated in Fig. 8, and by removing the neck and body portion B6 of the portrait shown in Fig. 2 and inserting in lieu thereof, for instance, the neck and body portion B6 shown in Fig. 1 still another character study is obtained.
It is expressly understood that the corresponding parts of the portraits are exactly alike in configuration to permit a ready interchange from one portrait to another, the principal` characteristics beingy a separable nose-piece,mouthpiece,chin-and-cheek piece, eyepiece, head-piece,andbodypiece; but I do not limit myselfrto the special lines and pieces shown, asthe same may be varied for accomplishing the same result.k
I also do notlimit myself to portraits only, as other representationsmaybe treated in a similar manner. In each oase, however, the outline of the tray and of the sectional block to be received therein does not coincide with the outline of the portrait or other picture, and thelines of division betweenadjacent pieces extend from the outline of the block to the outline of the picture and then into the picture, each of said division-lines forming an angle where it meets the outline of the picture. The outer'portion of each divi- Sion-line between the outline of the picture and the outline of the block is preferably straight.
It is evident from the foregoing that the game apparatus will affordV considerable amusement to a player and enable him to produce an endless variety of object lessons in character studies.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A game apparatus, comprising a series of trays, and portraits made in separable pieces, and adapted to fit into the depressions `in the said trays, the separable pieces of the various portraits being alike in shape, to permit of interchanging the pieces of the various portraits, the said pieces being removable from the trays by having the sides of the trays formed with cutout portions, as set forth.
FRIEDRICH VON IIOLZHAUSEN.
