the following is a full, clear, and exact de- UNITED STATES Patented March 28, 1905.
FRANK R.. CURRIE, OF MASON CITY, IOVA.
DISPLAY CABINET OR STAND.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent Nou 786,104, dated March 28, 1905.
Application filed March I8, 1904. Serial No. 198,760.
To all whom, it may concern:
Beit known that I, FRANK R. CURRIE, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Mason City, in the county of Cerro Gordo and State of Iowa, have invented a new and Improved Display Cabinet or Stand, of which scription.
rI`his invention relates to display cabinets or stands; and it consists, substantially, in the construction and combinations of parts hereinafterparticularlydescribed, and pointed out in the claims.
The invention has reference more especially to cabinets or stands for the display of tools or implements, particularly saws, though well adapted for the display of other articles; and one of the principal objects thereof is to overcome numerous disadvantages and objectionscommon to many other structures hitherto devised for similar purposes.
A further object is to provide a cabinet or stand of thecharacter referred to which is commodious, easy of access and repair, as well as exceedingly simple in construction and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture.
A still further object is to provide a structure of this kind which is strong and light in weight, besides being effective in use and possessing' the capacity for long and repeated service.
The above and additional objects are attained by means substantially such as are illustrated in the accompanying' drawings, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is aview in perspective of a display cabinet or stand embodying my improvements. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional View thereof,on a reduced scale,to more clearly indicate the construction. Fig. 3 is a sectional view in detail, and Fig. 4 is a View in diagram representing' a slight difference in the general form of the structure.
Before proceeding with a more detailed description it may be stated that in the form of my improvements herein shown I employ a display cabinet or stand of special construction at both the front and sidesY thereof for the reception and storage of tools i or other articles, the said front being closed by suitable doors, while the said sides are .closed by doors of specialconstruction to enable the ready display of samples of goods keptin stock or on sale. The structure may be placed in any desired position within a store or salesroom, and while I have herein represented my improvements in a certain selected embodiment it will be understood, of course, that I am not limited to the precise details thereof in practice, since immaterial changes therein may be resorted to coming within the scope of my invention.
Specilic reference being had to the accompanying drawings by the designating characters marked thereon, 1 represents my improved display cabinet or stand as an entirety, the same being provided with a suitable base 2, from which extends or rises a back 3, the front of the structure comprising an inner wall 4, set forwardly of and parallel with said back 3, together with outwardly-flaring side walls 5, intersecting the vertical edges of said wall 4 from the base 2 to the top 6 of the structure, as shown. For a suitable height from said base 2 the said inner wall 4 and side walls 5 constitute practically a cupboard for the reception and storage of different articles, the same being closed in any suitable manner, as by means of hinged doors 8, each having a locking device or catch 9. Just above the said cupboard l preferably provide the structure with a sliding shelf or table 10, upon which articles taken from the cabinet may be placed during transactions between a salesman and a customer or when cleaningl or marking the goods, and
above the said sliding shelf or table I provide the front compartment 11, formed by the walls 4 and 5, with any desired number of horizontal shelves 12, on which goods to be displayed may be placed within the cabinet, said compartment being closed by preferably glass'doors 13 and 14, mounted on rails 14 to slide past each other in the front frame 15. (See Figs. 1 and 2.) The construction and organization of parts referred to results in the formation of side compartments 16, each approximately triangular in plan view, as shown, and preferably divided up into numerous pigeonholes by means of horizontal and IOO tion by means of catches 26.
Saws or other implements or articles may be placed within the pigeonholes of the side compartments, as shown, while articles of any kind may be placed on the shelves of the front compartment 11, and thereby viewed from without through the glass doors o1' closures for said compartment. The cupboard below said front compartmentmay be used for any desired purpose, as already mentioned.
In Fig. 4 the construction of the cabinet or stand is in most respects the same as in Fig. 1, with the exception that the same as an entirety is substantially triangular in plan view, as shown. The doors for this form of cabinet are preferably constructed substantially the same as those for the side compartments of l the cabinet shown in Fig. 1; but the sliding doors will serve for all practical purposes.
The cabinet or stand may be constructed of l any desired material and of any desired shape or size to suit the particular location in a store in which the same is tol be employed. The many advantages of my improvements will be fully understood without further elucidation thereof.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A display-cabinet having a compartment provided with a closure, said closure having in its outer face a compartment provided with means for supporting tools and the like, and a transparent closure for said latter compartment. i

4. A display-cabinet, comprising a compartment having a closure constructed of an inner swinging door having outwardly-extending iianges at its edges, and an outer glass door having swinging support upon the inner door.
5. A display-cabinet constructed with a compartment having a closure, the latter comprising an inner door having swinging support at the front of the compartment, and an outer door of glass, having swinging support on said first-named door.
6. A display-cabinet constructed with a compartment having a closure, the latter comprisingan inner door having swinging support at the front of the compartment, and provided with suspending devices for articles, and an outer door of glass, having swinging support on said first-named door.

10. A display-cabinet, Constructed with a front compartment having a closure, and a compartment on either side thereof also having a closure, the latter comprising an inner door having swinging support, and an outer door of glass having swinging support upon said inner door, each side compartment being provided with pigeonholes.
