Application filed Inch 7, 1906- Serlcl No. 804,669.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LOUISE HEALY, a citizen of the United States,'residin at New York cit Manhattan, county an State of NeWYor ,have invented new and useful Improvements -in Stands for PlayingCards, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a stand'for supporting two hands or deals of playing-cards ack to back. I
The invention 'is" designed for playing whist and other games w1th two dummies, the stand permitting each pla er tosee his own dummy hand, but concea g from him the dummy hand of his opponent.
In the accompanying drawings, Fi e 1 is a perspective view of my improve s tand; and Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section of the same, showing the cards in osition.
The stand comprises two indlined sides 3, that diver e from top to bottom and. are connected by a top plate 4 and by end plates 5. The horizontal top plate 4 is provided along each edge with a ongitudinal slot 6. The end plates 5 project beyond the sides 3 to form abutments that prevent the cards from slipping off the ends of the stand. From the base of each side 3 extends upwardly a rail 7 to form a longitudinal pocket or trough along the lower edge of each side. A raised bottom plate 8 connects sides 3 at a distance below top late 4.
Part 9 o the cards of one dummy hand is placed agginst one side 3 to be su ported by rail 7, w 'lo the otherpart 10 of the same back of said side 3, so as to rest on false bottom 8. In like manner the two parts. 11 and 12 of the other dumm hand are arranged along the front and back of the other side 3. Thus it will be seen that the two parts of each dummy hand are arranged in two tiers, of which the rear tier projects above the front tier, so as to be plainly visible. The cards are removed from the stand by grasping their upper ends, which project above the topfplate 4.
thestand is placed upon a table between two players, each layer will be faced b his own dummy hand? while the dummy and of his op onent will be entirely concealed.
What claim is 1. A stand for playing-cards comprising a pair of diverging sides, an upper connectingplate having a pair of longitudinal slots and an elevate bottom plate, substantially as specified;
