Abstract

A device for the manipulation of letters on a changeable letterboard. A slide, with a tacky frontal adhesive face for temporary attachment of letters to be moved, is withdrawn into a closely mating outer case, the case stripping the letters from the adhesive face. An internal spring maintains the tacky frontal face in a normally exposed position in relation to the case. A gripping, squeezing area is provided to allow the actuation of movement of the slide into the case. The tacky adhesive face of the device is placed against letters to be moved, the device with letters temporarily adhesively attached is withdrawn from the letterboard and moved to a new location, the gripping area is squeezed, actuating the withdrawal of the adhesive face into the case, the front of the case strips the letters from the adhesive. Letters being moved as a group by the device will maintain their relative positions while being relocated.
