Abstract: A fishing lure retriever for use in freeing a fishing lure caught on an underwater obstruction has a weighted body connected to a cable which is attached to a reel driven by gears and electric motor. The reel, gears and motor are enclosed in a housing equipped with a cleat for securing the cable. The enclosure also has a hand grip surface for a secure grip. The weighted body is attached to the fishing line, and can slide freely along the line to the lure. The weighted body has short chains attached to it. The reel unwinds the cable to lower the weighted body to the lure. The weighted body strikes the lure, dislodging it from the underwater obstruction, or the chains are made to catch on the hooks attached to the lure. The cable is then secured to the cleat on the enclosure; the combination is then manually pulled to tear the lure loose by brute force.

Abstract: A new and improved quick opening and self closing container made of a resilient rubber-like material for removably receiving large coins, keys or pieces of candy the size and shape of the well known cylindrically shaped bubble gum or of the common chocolate HERSHEY'S.RTM. KISSES.TM., coins, or the like. Said container is shaped in the form of a face with lips along the edges of its opening, giving it the appearance of a person opening its mouth when the container is opened for receiving or retrieving an object.

Abstract: A first box and a second box are connected to a base member. The base member may be attached to the back of a vehicle seat with a mounting harness. The second box and the first box can be moved to an open position, away from the seat back. The tops of the boxes can then be opened, or folded up to form an easel for holding a book. A handle is provided for using the invention apart from a vehicle.

Abstract: An adjustable nut and a friction washer exert a resistance to the rotation of a form roller, causing the form roller to rotate slower than the plate cylinder. The final form roller thus wipes the plate cylinder free of foreign particles to eliminate hickeys and ghosting on the final print.

Abstract: The apparatus includes a frame having two vertical legs and a horizontal bridge beam. A chain hoist is mounted on an eye nut on the bridge beam. A primary chain and a secondary chain are suspended from the chain hoist. The secondary chain is connected to an object to be lifted. The secondary chain may be connected to C-shaped clamps, which are placed on the edge of the object to be lifted. After the object has been broken free of the ground, the frame may be tilted about a horizontal axis, to pull the object from the ground.
