PIPEHOLDER
Year: 1885

page_text: GUSTAVUS HENRY BUSCH Advertising Agent 33 King St., Cheapside, London
Middlesex England do hereby declare the nature of my invention for A PIPEHOLDER
to be as follows:-
My invention consists in constructing a holder, into which a pipe and more
especially a clay-pipe can be introduced.
The most important feature thereof is a flexible disc with a hole through it, (or
short stoutish tube) preferably of India-rubber. This I attach to or insert into an
ordinary cigarholder or one specially made for it, or to or in something similar to
what is commonly called a burner, which then may be inserted or fixed into the
holder. By introducing the pipe through the hole in the disc or tube the pipe can
be smoked like a cigar through a cigarholder. I prefer using a burner and propose
in preference making this longer than those generally in use; moreover I prefer
hollowing it out equally all the way down to where it narrows.-The disc (or
short tube) may be fastened to the holder or burner or simply pressed into it.
By the term "burner" I understand the short additional tube made. of
Meerschaum, wood amber or other material, which is fixed on to the end of a
cigarholder to prevent the heat of the cigar from burning the same.
The advantages of my invention are i
1. In the case of a clay-pipe, the clay (which is apt by touching the lips to
adhere thereto and sometimes thereby to produce cancer) is kept away trom the
mouth.
2. Pipes even with their stem broken, can be used as long as there is a small
piece of stem left on the bowl.
3. By having the disc (or short tube) in a burner by removing the latter, the
holder (or mouthpiece part thereof) can be used for cigars or cigarettes.
4. By lengthening the burner and widening the hole inside, the end of the
pipestem need not protrude through the burner into the mouthpiece, and part of
the juice will thus be allowed to trickle into the hollow of the burner-keeping
the mouthpiece comparatively free from it.
5. The burner can be replaced by a fresh one without interfering with the pipe
or the mouthpiece of the holder.
Noted this 12th day of October 1885.

13 Brompton Square, South Kensington London S.W. do hereby declare the nature
of my invention for A HOLDER FOR TOBACCO-PIPES and in what manner the same
is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :-
My invention consists in constructing a holder, into which a pipe and more
particularly a clay pipe can be introduced.
The most important feature thereof is a flexible disc with a hole through it (or
short stoutish tube) preferably of India-Rubber. This I attach to or insert into an
ordinary cigar or cigarette holder or one specially made for it, or to or into what
is commonly called a "burner" or "carriage," which then may be inserted or fixed
into the holder. By introducing the pipe through the hole in the disc or tube the
pipe can be smoked like a cigar through a cigarholder.
"
I prefer using a burner" (or "carriage") and propose in preference making
this longer than those generally in use; moreover I prefer hollowing it out equally
all the way down to where it narrows.
The disc (or short tube) may be fastened to the holder or burner (or carriage) or
simply pressed into it.
By the term "burner" or "carriage" I understand the short additional tube,
made of Meerschaum, wood, amber or other material, which is fixed onto the end
of a cigar or cigarette holder, to prevent the heat of the cigar or cigarette from
burning the same.
Having now particularly described and acertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is t
1.) In the case of a clay-pipe, the clay (which is apt by touching the lips to
adhere thereto and sometimes thereby to produce cancer) is kept away from the
mouth.
2.) Pipes generally, even with their stem broken, can be used, as long as there
is a small piece of stem left on the bowl.
3.) By having the disc (or short tube) in a burner, by removing the latter, the
holder (or mouthpiece part thereof) can be used for cigars or cigarettes..
4.) By lengthening the burner, and widening the hole inside, the end of the
pipestem need not protrude through the burner into the mouthpiece, and part of
the juice will thus be allowed to trickle into the hollow of the burner-keeping
the mouthpiece comparatively free from it.
5.) The burner can be replaced by a fresh one without interfering with the pipe
or the mouthpiece of the holder.
6.) In the same way the stoutish tube or disc can be easily renewed.
