DISPLAY KERCHIEF.
Application filed September 22, 1924. Serial No. 739,089.
The resent invention relates to wearing appare, and particularly to kerchiefs designed to be worn in display position, and aims to provide a very simple and inexpensive article of this character adapted to fulfill all the requirements of a neat and attractive display kerchief, and yet be so economical to produce as to allow of its use as an advertising novelty.
Accordin ly, I have devised a display kerchief of this type which comprises a flexible kerchief portion, and also a comparatively stiffer portion for fitting inside the pocket of a waist or coat, whereby the flexible or kerchief portion is supported in slightly projecting relation to the mouth of the pocket for display purposes.
In its preferred form, the invention comprises a fabric display kerchief portion, combined with a relatively stiff supporting member for fitting inside the pocket, in supported relation to the bottom of the pocket, and so attached to the kerchief portion as to maintain the latter in neatly folded condition, as well as in slightly projecting relation so as to expose the upper fringe of the kerchief in display position outside the pocket.
With the foregoing general object in view, the invention will now be described by reference to the accompanying drawing illustrating one form of embodiment of my improvement, after which those features deemed to be novel will be particularly set forth and claimed.
In the drawing- Figure 1 is a perspective view illustrating the invention associated with the exterior breast pocket of a coat;
Figures 2 and 3 are front and rear face views, respectively, showing the novel kerchief device, on a larger scale; and
Fi re 4 is a section taken on the line IV- V of Figure 2.
For some time it has been the vogue to wear, simply for display purposes, a neatly folded kerchief in the exterior breast pocket of sack or business coats, the body of the kerchief bein tucked ,almost completely within the poo et, leaving only small corner portions of the kerchief visible at the mouth of the pocket. To use an entire and full sized kerchief for this purpose tends to pad and bulge the area of the pocket some- I what, besides which it is a needless appropriation of an entire handkerchief where the object is to display only a small portion thereof and nothing more. In fact, it has been proposed to make use of, as an advertismg novelty, a piece of cardboard or other comparatively stiff material, cut and decorated in simulation of a kerchief, and to insert this in the pocket in lieu of a fabric kerchief, leaving exposed that part of the novelty which represents the display portion of the kerchief. To a certain extent this answers the requirement of a display kerchief device, particularly where used only as an advertising novelty, but its only recommendation is its cheapness, which is carried to such an extreme as to destroy its appeal to the more fastidious who prefer an article of finer quality and more completely simulating the actual fabric handkerchief.
In the present case, as illustrated by the drawing, I make use of a display kerchief 5 made of as fine fabric material as may be desired, but. of only such size as is required to neatly fold the same as indicated at 6 so as to leave the projecting corners 7 which are to project into view outside the breast pocket 8 of the coat 9 (Figure 1). Since it is not proposed to use a plece of fabric of the size of the usual masculine kerchief, in order to avoid the unnecessary padding of the pocket, Iemploy a supporting element which performs the double function of maintaining the kerchief portion 5 in the neatly folded condition shown, and also properly supporting the kerchief 5 at the top of the pocket with the corners 7 projecting therefrom into display position. In the form of the invention illustrated, I show a cardboard member 10 of such a size as to conform for the most part to the main outline of the interior of the pocket 8, with the lower edge of said cardboard member supported upon the bot tom of the pocket. In order to form an attachment between this cardboard member 10 and the kerchief member 5, and at the same time maintain the latter in its neatly folded condition, I form slits 11 extending parallel across'the top portion of the cardboard member, as clearly illustrated in Figures 2 to 4, thus providing a strap or loop 12 beneath which to tuck the folded lower portion of member 5; and, in practice, the length of the slits 11 may be so chosen that the drawing of the lower portion of the folded kerchief member through the slits will be limited to just the required extent for leaving the outer corners 7 of the kerchief projecting to the proper distance outside the pocket, after the device has been inserted into the pocket, with 1 the lower endof the supporting member 10 resting against the bottom of the ocket.
I also prefer to secure the kerc ief member 5 further, to the cardboard or supporting member 10, by a short line of stitching 14along the strap or loop 12, thus reventing' an casual disconnection of the erchief from t e cardboard as in the handling of a quantity of the same, or after the article has been placed in the pocket.
It will thus be apparent that I have provided a very simple, as well as inexpensive, and yet attractive device for fulfilling the desired ob'ects ofthe invention. That is to say, the evice, while it may be made at very small cost, provides all that is necessary in a display article of this character, the use of an entire and bulky handkerchief of the usual size being of course, altogether elimi nated. Since the improved article can be produced so cheaply, it is also apparent that it can be employed to good advantage as an advertising novelty, particularly adapted for laundries and cleaning establishments, in the practice of which the article can be inserted in the pocket as illustrated in Figure 1, on being returned to the patron. In such use so of the device, the cardboard portion 10 may be neatly printed with a note of appreciation of the patrons business, as indicated at 15, or with any other preferred form of prined matter, as indicated at 16 in Figure While I have illustrated and described what I now regard as the preferred mode of practicing the invention, I desire to reserve the right to make such changes and modifications as may fairly fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is:
A display kerchief for outside coat pockets comprislng a fabric kerchief ada ted to be folded inside the top of the poo et, a flat comparatively stiff supporting and holding member of such size that when the bottom thereof is resting upon the bottom of the pocket the kerchief is in proper display position, said supporting member having a pair of spaced parallel slits for holding the lower portion of the kerchief and maintaining the kerchief in folded condition, and a row of stitching intermediate said slits adapted to secure the kerchief to the material of sald flat supporting member between said slits.
In witness whereof I hereunto aflix my signature.
