These belts are mounted on a wooden frame any length required, preferably six feet. 3rd. belts are operated by crank handles attached to rollers or pulleys. 4th. To these belts are attached miniature horses, bicycles, or anything suitable for entering into race competition. 5th. Belts are concealed from view by a light board placed over them. The bicycles or horses pass over this board while belts pass beneath. The knife like connection between bicycle, or horses, and belts passes along an almost imperceptible slit in the light board. 6. Operators take a handle each and the more expert wins. Condition: Slight crinkling. Pages loose. Wear to left hand edge where patent has been removed from the volume.

Multiple Item Postage: Patents can be combined for postage costs, the cost is the same whether you purchase one or several, so check out our Ebay Shop patent listings as well. This patent specification has been disbound from a volume of 100 different patents. This is an original HMSO published item at the time, not a modern copy as are being sold elsewhere. The drawings are often ideal for framing. It is part of a collection of several volumes from the 1893-1900,1907 & 1920/50's that I have from which individual patents will be sold over the next few years.
