greater than a business card. The rectangular area on the
sheet can be
embossed therein as shown in Figure 13. The embossed area is
generally the size of a business card to be attached thereto.
The business card holders of Ristuccia show what appear to be
several mechanisms for attaching the card to the business card
holder. Figure 7 appears to show holes and slots while
Figures 1 and 19 appear to show other holding means. Finally,
the examiner has cited either McCabe or Goldman to teach the
concept of corner holes to hold one sheet to another sheet
where the sheet is a numeral such as displayed by Goldman, or
a photograph or a frame in an album sheet as disclosed by
McCabe.
In our view, the combined teachings of these
references, whether taken as Finger in view of Ristuccia and
Goldman, Hanson in view of Ristuccia and Goldman, Finger in
view of Ristuccia, Goldman and McCabe, or Hanson in view of
Ristuccia, Goldman and McCabe, would have rendered the subject
matter of claims 19 through 23, 24 and 26 through 28 prima
