NBCKTIE LINING FABRIC Find March 1929 INVENTOR WITNESSES Edgar If. Frank I w I BY My 'O ATTORNEY Patented Mar. 4, 1930 EDGAR K. FRANK, OF NEW YORK, Y.

N ECKTIE-LININ G FABRIQ Application filed March 9,

This invention relates generally to fabrics, and refers more particularly to an improvement in a fabric which is especially designed for necktie linings to be, used either in machine or hand made ties,

Primarily, the invention comprehends a fabric from which suitably shaped strips are adapted'to be cut to serve as tie linings, which linings while not materially increasing the 1 cost, present a better appearing and more salable article when incorporated in the finished tie. The invention further contemplates a tie lining fabric woven in such a manner as to provide longitudinally extending areas having respectively warps of different grades or characters and a filling of the same grade or-character so that when the material is cut transversely or on the bias to intersect said areas, the end or ends exposed for examinationwhen incorporated in the tie present a better appearance and'hence render the tie m'ore' salable. 4 Y

The invention furthermore comprehends a tie lining having transversely extending lonitudinally spaced areas respectively of different grades or characters.

More specifically, the invention comprehends a necktie lining composed of a woven integral piece of material having areas at one or both ends thereof which are of a different grade or character of material than the remaining area. 1

With the above recited and other objects in view, reference is had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in,

which there is exhibited one example or embodiment of the invention, while the claims define the actual scope of the same.

- In the drawings: Figure 1 is a plan view of a length of the material illustrating in broken linesthe manner in which the same is cut to provide the necktielinings. p

. Figure 2 is a perspective severed lining strips. Figure 3 is a perspective view of one of the stripp' gs which are produced between an adjaccnt pair of lining strips.

Referring to the drawings by characters of view ofone of the 1929. Serial No. 345,742.

reference, the fabric includes longitudinally extending areas A, B and C, the former area being made up of warp threads 5 and weft threads 6 which may either be of the same grade or character of material or of different grades or characters of material, such as, for instance, the warp threads 5 may be made of cotton and the weft threads 6 of wool. In practice, the distinction between the grades or characters of the threads may lie in the use of a combination or plated yarn, such as rayon and wool or rayon and cotton. The areas B and C are composed of warp threads which are of a distinguishing grade or character with respect to the warp threads 5 of the area A, and in practice the weft threads 6 will be the same in all areas. It thus follows that when the material is cut transversely or on the bias, as indicated by the broken lines D, lining strips E and strippings F are produced in which the lining strips E are provided of an integral woven material having the areas A, B and C, the former being of a different grade or character from the areas. B and C at the opposite ends thereof. When the liningis incorporated in the finished tie, the ends B and C which may be exposed for examination present a better appearance and hence render the article more salable. In this manner, it will be apparent that at a very slight increase in cost, the result sought is attained. For instance, many necktie lin ings are constructed entirely of cotton fabric throughout, and in the present instance by weaving cotton warp threads in the intermediate area A and wool or a more expensive thread as the warp of the areas B and C with a cotton filling or weft threads, the opposite ends or areas B and C of the strip E which may be exposed for examination will show as a cotton and wool mixture. On the other hand, if the warp threads 5 of the area A are'cotton and the warp threads 7 of the area B are wool and the weft threads are all wool,

the lining strip E which is produced will show at its opposite end areas B and C which may be exposed for examination an all wool effect.

The strippings F which result from the shaping of adjacent cut strips E may be used in the usual manner to reinforce the neck band engaging portion of the tie.

From the foregoing, it is to be understood that the applicant desires to convey by the term differentgrades or characters any difference in the cost of the threads that are used in weaving the material, as well as any other differences which may be covered by the term.

What is claimed is:

1. A necktie lining fabric woven with longitudinally extending areas one having a warp of one character and a weft of another character and the other areas having warps warps of one of said areas to define longitudinally arranged areas of said lining of 7 different grades or characters.

4. -A strip of fabric for necktie linings comprising a body with a central longitudi- 'nal section formed of yarns of different materials and side sections of yarn of the same material.

"5. A necktie lining comprising three integral sections, the end sections being composed of warp and weft threads of the same material and the central section having warp and weft threads of a different material.

6. A necktie liningcomprising three integral sections, the end sections being composed of warp and weft threads of the same material and the central section having warp and weft threads of a different material, one of which is similar to the threads of the end sections.

7 A woven necktie lining fabric including longitudinallyextending areas having warp threads of a character different from the weft threads, one of'said areas having warp and weft threads of the same character.

8. In a woven necktie lining cut in a strip from a fabric having longitudinally extending areas with warp of different grade and a filling of the same'grade.

9. A'necktie lining fabric woven to form londitudinally extending areas of different kinds of fabric which when out transversely into strips will provide a necktie lining having its ends of a different kind of fabric from its medial area.

10. A necktie lining fabric having woven as an integral unit longitudinally extending strips of different kinds of fabric.

11. A necktie liningfabric including lon- 'gitudinally extending integral central and marginal areas formed of diiferent kinds of v of a diflerent kind of fabric from the remaining marginal areas.

13. A necktie lining composed of a woven integral piece of fabric having areas at o posite ends of a different kind or character rom the medial area thereof.

14. A necktie lining comprising three intethe end areas being composed of
