HODDER FOR PRICE QR ADVERTISING CARDS Filed July 30, 1928 E] 3 d. 1. BREDAR INVENTOR.
' w /rzmdm ATTORNEY Patented Mar. 17, 1931 UNITED STATES JOSEPH L. BREDAR, F ROGKISLAND, ILLINOIS HOLDER FOR PRICE OR ADVERTISING CARDS Application filed July 30,
The present invention pertains broadly to a holding or supporting means for cards of various kinds but more particularly to a device for supporting price cards on gasoline pump containers. Among the objects of this invention are to provide a device of the kind indicated which will securely hold a card or cards in place but from which the same will be readily detachable; to provide a device of the character indicated in which the cards may be readily inserted or removed at will but which will nevertheless be securely held in place; to provide a simple price card holding device which is readily attachable to an oil pump mechanism and which will display the price of the fuel so that it can be readily observed by passers-by; to provide a device of thecharacter indicated which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture but which is exceedingly effective in use; and such further objects, advantages and capabilities as will hereafter appear and as are inherent in the construction disclosed herein. My invention further resides in the combination,
2:; construction and arrangement of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawing and, while I have shown therein what is now considered the preferred embodiment of this invention, I desire this disclosure to be considered as illustrative only and not as limiting the invention.
In the drawing attached hereto and forming a part hereof, Fig. 1 is an elevation of my new construction with a price card mounted so in place thereon; Fig. 2 is a plan view of the construction shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is an elevation of this construction taken from the right side of Figs. 1 and 2.
Referring more in detail to the annexed 4o drawing, numeral 1 denotes the body of the card holder, which body is provided with a plurality of laterally extending arms 2. This device may be constructed of spring material, if desired, but it is believed preferable to 4p make it of material which can be more or less 1928. Serial No. 296,328.
readily bent into the desired shape and which will retain this shape after it has been formed. Adjacent the upper end of the edge upon which the arms 2 are formed is formed a hook 3 which may be engaged over a portion of the device upon which the card is to be mounted. The visible gasoline container of most oil pumps is usually provided with a wire cage of sufficient rigidity to prevent the container from being broken accidentally. The hook 3 can readily be hooked into this net-ting or cage of the container and will readily and securely support the holder in elevated position where it will be readily visible. The arms 2 can then be bent into position to enter between the wires of the cage or to surround or partially surround the bolts thereof which hold the cage together. The device is then securely mounted in place.
Lugs or ears 4 are formed upon opposite edges of the body 1 and bent over to occupy positions upon opposite sides thereof. These ugs 4 are spaced just far enough from the body 1 to permit a price card 5 or advertising'card or the like to be inserted between the lu s and the body. This may be done either y sliding the card lengthwise of the body, against a face thereof, behind the lugs 4, or an edge of thecard may be inserted behind the upper or lower lugs and then the card be sufficiently bent so that the opposite edge may be inserted behind the other lugs. While the device is shown as being provided with two lugs upon each face thereof, it will be understood that this number may be varied. For example, instead of two lugs upon each face at both top and bottom, either top or bottom might be provided with one lug upon each face, substantially at the middle thereof, the other edge being provided with two or more. Also, more than two lugs could be provided upon each face, if thought desirable. Furthermore, one or both edges could be folded over to provide a groove along one face and then folded back around the folded edge and up along the opposite face of the body 1, thus forming a channel upon each side of the body. However, this would be a more expensive construction and it is doubted whether it would prove as desirable in use as the construction herein disclosed.
Having now described my invention, I claim:
1. In a card holder of the character described, a body having projections thereon to engage and hold a card or cards, a hook at one end in the plane of the body to engage a supporting means and suspend the holder therefrom, the body of the holder projecting away from the supporting means, and means extending laterally from. thebody in opposite directions and adapted to engage a part my name to this specification. A

of the supporting means to hold the body in substantially upright position for display purposes and prevent substantial lateral swinging thereof.
1-2. In a card holder, a substantially flat body portion having supporting means upon one edge thereof for supporting the body in a position in which it extends away from its support, said'body'having projections from a pair of edges thereof, said projections overlying opposite faces of the body to furnish supporting means upon opposite sides there of for cards inserted between the body and the projections.
3. In a card holder, a body portion having a plurality of cars upon opposite sides thereof to receive and hold cards thereon for dis play purposes, a supporting hook extending from one edge of the body and spaced sufliciently from said edge to permit the device to be hung upon a supporting means, and
' projections extending laterally from said body member in opposite directions and adapted-to engage said supporting means and hold the body supported thereon when cooperating with the hook.
lLIn a device of the character described, a substantially flat body element having a hook formed upon one edge thereof and extending substantially parallel with said edge, said hook being adapted to suspend the body from the cage of a gasoline container, with the body projecting outwardly away from the -ccntai'ner, projecting means extending from another' portion of said edge of the body and adapted to engage another part of the asoline container to cooperate'with the hook in supporting the body on and to pre vent swinging of the body with relation to the container, and means on the body to hold a card or cards thereon. 1
5. In a device of the character described, a substantially flat body element having a hook formed upon one edge thereof and ex tendingsubstantially parallel with said edge,
said hook being adapted to suspend the body 7 from the cage of a gasoline container, pro-
