To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, FRANK L. WRIGHT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and original Design for Prism-Plates, of which the following is a specification. My invention relates to designs for prism-plates. Figure 1 is a plan view of a prism-plate embodying my design. Fig. 2 is a section therethrough. A is the body of the prism-plate. B B are a series of surface areas substantially uniform in appearance and produced by the lines of separation C C, which cross the surface of the body of the plate. D D are prisms on the opposite side. Upon the surface of the prism-plate and intermediate between its center and outer edge a group of areas forming an annulus are ornamented by means of the lines E E. These lines are produced on the surface of the prism-plate. The field within and without the annulus |
is ornamented also by the lines F F, which are arranged so as to form a
separate and distinct design within each surface area, thus giving a
mosaic-like effect. The essential features of my invention are found in a prism-plate comprising a substantially flat extended body with prisms on one side and on the other a series of lines of separation which divide the surface areas, a series of lines of ornamentation which produce a distinct ornamented annulus between the center and the outer edge of the surface, and a series of separate designs, one on each of the remaining surface areas, so as to give the effect of a mosaic field within and without the annulus. I claim-- A design for a prism-plate, substantially as shown and described.
