Help with a patent
I am trying to locate info about the July 24, 1883 patent noted on the cap of a vintage Orvis rod tube. I’m not having any luck and would appreciate some help. Thanks.

Re: Help with a patent
By the way, here is a link to a longer thread on Classic Fly Rod Forum where an expert in vintage Orvis tackle asked me about the patent date on the rod tube cap.

Thanks for any help about this obscure patent.

Look at US Patent 201845 for a "Bottle Case"

Re: Help with a patent
Paul, thanks a million. I did not make that connection, but that’s likely the one for the rod tube, as well.
Now to figure out the connection or patent assignment between J. Davis and C.F. Orvis...
Thanks
Mike

Re: Help with a patent
Looks like something that would carry bottles of nitroglycerin, whenever that was invented.
Re: Help with a patent
That explains the "paint" on the tubes.
