Abstract: A sheet of book index tabs has a backing with a release coating and a plurality of index tabs on the backing sheet separated from each other by die-cut lines. Each index tab has a transparent film layer and transparent pressure sensitive adhesive which is temporarily attached to the release coating. Each tab has a centrally located, substantially opaque band of ink extending across the tab. Stripes of dark ink are printed along each edge of the band with each stripe being an equal distance from the adjacent edge of the tab. A score line on the bottom of the backing is centered opposite the center of the band of ink to facilitate creasing of the backing and index tab. The tab takes a permanent set along the crease and separates from the release coating along the set to facilitate peeling from the backing. Upon folding the index tab along the crease, the dark stripes are superimposed for placement along the edge of a document page as an aid to alignment.

Abstract: A three-dimensional display device, preferably of molded plastic, having simulations of cold-cut slices of various common thicknesses, available for visual and tactile inspection, mounted edgewise on a point-of-purchase display board. Numerical quanta in direct proportion to slice thickness is printed adjacent each slice for allowing the purchaser to select slice thickness by number.

Abstract: A power operated walking mower of the type having a generally cup-shaped housing with a motor supported on top of the housing and having a vertical shaft driving a rotary blade within the housing. A discharge chute extends generally tangentially in a forward direction from the left side, rather than right side, of the housing that turns upwardly and somewhat rearwardly to a discharge opening near the top and forward left side of the motor. A material receiving container, or grass bag, is connected to the end of the discharge chute an extends rearwardly over the top of the motor and then downwardly between spaced mower handle bars and is supported directly on the mower housing.

Abstract: An edge lighted display in which light is transmitted through a translucent planar panel to be refracted by the presence of indicia, such as a crayon marking to provide a luminescent appearance. In the disclosed embodiment, the translucent panel which is made of synthetic resinous materials is provided with a thin coating on an outer surface thereof of a harden silicate material, whereby light rays pass in the plane of the junction between the outer surface of the panel and the inner surface of the coating prior to refraction for improved brilliance.
