PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Combined Pen and Ink Eraser.
1, CHARLES EDWARD COUSENS of 437 Norwood Road West Norwood in the
County of Surrey Grocer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
The object of this invention is to combine an ink eraser with a pen so that the
eraser is always at hand and when required can be used immediately and without
trouble. The invention thus comprises a new and useful combination which will be
found invaluable to writers of all kinds.
According to this invention I place a tube over the end of the penholder and in
the end of said tube I place a cylindrical or other shaped block of hard india rubber of
the kind used for erasing ink marks. If desired the tube may be permanently affixed
to the end of the penholder, although I prefer that it shall be detachable therefrom
so as to be readily removed and placed on another holder when desired.
Dated this 11th day of May 1889.

The object of this invention is to combine an ink eraser with a pen so that the
eraser is always at hand, and when required, can be used immediately and without
trouble. The invention thus comprises a new and useful combination which will be
found invaluable to writers of all kinds.
According to this invention, I place a tube over the end of the penholder, and in
the end of said tube I place a cylindrical or other shaped block of bard india-rubber
of the kind used for erasing ink marks. If desired the tube may be permanently
affixed to the end of the penholder although I prefer that it shall be detachable
therefrom so as to be readily removed and placed on another holder when desired.
In the accompanying drawing which is furnished in illustration of the invention,
A is an ordinary penholder of any shape or design and B is a metal or other tube
placed on the end thereof. This tube is preferably corrugated spirally so as to form a
screw into which the cylindrical block of hard or ink erasing india-rubber C is placed
and held firmly by means of the spiral corrugations.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
The combination of a cylindrical or other shaped block of hard or ink erasing
india-rubber C screwing into a spirally corrugated tube B with a penholder of
