Patents: 332 of 530	UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE JOHN M. EWEN, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO THE LUXFER PRISM PATENTS COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE. DESIGN FOR A PRISM-LIGHT.	John M. Ewen 9 of 21 Luxfer: 25 of 88
SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 27,345, dated July 13, 1897. Application filed June 15, 1897. Serial No. 640,933. Term of patent 14 years.

To all whom it may concern:     Be it known that I, JOHN M. EWEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented and produced a new and original Ornamental Design for Prism-Plates, of which the following is a specification.     My invention relates to a new design for prism-plates.     It is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein is shown a prism-plate consisting of a series of diamond-shaped prism-lights A A and sections of diamond-shaped prism-lights B B and C C. Each of these prism-lights is provided with a prism-surface consisting of the prisms D. E E are opaque frame-pieces which run diagonally between the diamond-shaped lights.

I have shown certain angles for the diamonds and for the prisms and certain numbers of prism-lights; but the essential features of my design are found in a plate composed of a series of substantially diamond-shaped prism-lights and portions of diamond-shaped prism-lights set together so as to form a plate and all having prisms thereon substantially parallel to the shorter axes of the prism-lights.     I claim--     The design for a prism-plate substantially as shown and described. JOHN M. EWEN. Witnesses:     DONALD M. CARTER,     HOMER L. KRAFT
