Patents: 310 of 530	UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE. OLIN H. BASQUIN, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO THE LUXFER PRISM PATENTS COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE. DESIGN FOR A PRISM-LIGHT.	Olin H. Basquin 6 of 28 Luxfer: 6 of 88
SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 27,323, dated July 13, 1897. Application filed June 15, 1897. Serial No. 640,919. Term of patent 14 years.

To all whom it may concern:     Be it known that I, OLIN H. BASQUIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented and produced a certain new and useful Design for Prism-Lights, of which the following is a description.     My design consists of a prism-light having a certain outline with an inscribed smaller circular prism-surface. It is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein--     Figure 1 is a plan view of a hexagonal prism-light. Fig. 2 is an section therethrough.     Like parts are indicated by the same letter in both figures.

A is the body of the prism-light, B B the prisms, and C one of the corner pieces, non-prismatic.     I have shown the prism-plate as hexagonal and a certain arrangement of angles and proportions in the prisms and plate; but the essential features of my design are found in a prism-light having an inscribed circular prism-surface smaller than and of different shape from the outline of the prism-light.     I claim--     The design for a prism-light, substantially as shown and described. OLIN H. BASQUIN. Witnesses:     DONALD M. CARTER,     BERTHA. C. SIMS.
