Application filed January 25,1906. Serial No. 297,872.
! cross-pieces can be used and the number of Be it known that I, GEORGE L. THORNE, a divisions changed accordingly. citizen of the United States, residing at the Fitting onashoulder 8 in the frame may be city of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have a protecting pane of glass 9, which is large invented certain new and useful Improveenough to cover the entire opening in the ments in Advertising Devices, of which the 1 front of the frame. The sliding panes 4with following is a specification, reference being the pictorial or advertising matter thereupon had therein to the accompanying drawing. are inserted behind this large pane 9. As the This invention relates to advertising depanes 4 are readily removable sidewise vices, especially to that kind in which rays of through the slots 7, it will be seen that this light are caused to shine through transparent matter can be changed just as frequently as or translucent material or through openings i desired. In Figs. 2, 3, and 4 I have shown a in opaque material on which the advertisement is displayed, and relates particularly to the manner of arrangement of the frame and on which the pictorial matter can be placed, instead of being on the pane 4. This screen slides bearing the advertisements, etc. j may be inserted between the large front pane In the accompanying drawings forming 1 9 and the sliding pane 4, the latter as well as part of this specification, in which like numthe former then constituting protection for bers of reference denote like parts wherever a the screen. they occur throughout the several views, In the panels 1 may be a plurality of perfo- Figure 1 is a front View of the device; Fig. 2 rations 11, said panels being made extra Wide, is a rear view, part of the reflector being reinwhich advertising matter can be placed.

In the drawings I have shown two cross-pieces 2, which would divide the frame into three portions and allow the use of three panes of glass 4, but it is obvious that any desired number of larpp also helps make the device more noticeab e.
Having thus described my said invention j what I claim and desire to secure by Letters- Patent is:
1. In a device of the character described, the combination of a frame composed of panels, cross-pieces mounted in said panels, a plurality of panes of glass supported by said screen 10 made of any translucent material, v
. ments, and the intermittent flashing of the panels and cross-pieces, a pane liked in said shine through said translucent screen and frame covering and protecting said other panes, and a translucent screen disposed between the large and the small panes.
2. In a device of the character described, the combination of a frame composed of panels, a fixed front pane resting within said panels, a sliding rear pane and a translucent screen disposed between the two panes, a reflector mounted on said panels, and a lamp within the reflector, whereby rays of light are diffused through the panes and the screen.
3. In a device of the character described, the combination of a frame composed of panels, one of which is slotted, cross-pieces mounted in said panels, a plurality of panes on which advertising matter is placed supported by said panels and said cross-pieces;
and a translucent screen placed between two of said advertising panes.
4. In a device of the character described, the combination of a main frame composed of panels, a plurality of cross-pieces mounted therein and serving to divide said frame into independent sections, a translucent screen displayed in one of said sections, and a plurality of separate]y-removable advertising panes displayed in the remaining sections, said panes being supported by said crosspieces and said panels.
5. In a device of the character described, the combination of a main frame, a plurality of cross-pieces mounted therein and serving to divide said frame into independent sections, a translucent screen displayed in one of said sections, a plurality of separately-removable advertising panes displayed in the remaining sections, a reflector secured to said frame, and a lamp within the reflector, the lamp being so arranged that the rays of light each of said panes.
6. In a device of the character described, the combination of a main frame composed of panels, the center opening of said frame being divided into a plurality of independent sections, a translucent screen displayed in one of said sections, a plurality of advertising panes displayed in the remainder of said sections, and a large pane covering and protect-ing all of said sections.
7. In a device of the character described, the combination of a main frame, a pictorial screen fixed in one section thereof, and advertising panes removably displa \-'ed in other sections thereof, said panes and said screen being independent of each other.
8. In a device of the character described, the combination of a main frame, a constantly-exhibited translucent screen, and a plurality of separately-removable advertising panes displayed in portions of said main frame not covcrrd'by said screen.
9. In a device of the character described, the combination of a frame composed of perforated panels, one of which is slotted, crosspieces mounted in said panels, a plurality of sliding panes on which advertising matter is placed supported by said cross-pieces, and a translucent screen displayed midway between two of said advertising panes, said panes being displayed through both the opening in the center of said panels and through the perforations therein.
In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
