. -fZ'o all whom fmaiyfcanoem ,Be ity known that kl, -f'llniiouonn Brenn- 1sidingkat Chicago, 1in 'the countyofCook 5 .and State ,of :Illinois,hat5e invented` .certain nevvfand usefullmprovements inFattern- :Exhibitors of which thetol'lnning Ais a speci'- o ,'ncation.
rlFliis inrention-V relates to pattern .exhibil(,toi'sfthe arrangement of the :constituent parts thereof, land themethodqby Which;-re productions of the dummy are made? ln the present invention .I ,llave-devised' also concerned with numerous other features41 of novelty whichwill hereinafter y appear. making reproductions ,of fashion-plates Y, and-other designs embodying fabrics and itextile goods for-=catalogue Work, posters or lother display. purposes, it iscustomary' to employ skilled artists to` preparea .dummy picture exhibiting clothed figures in artistic postures, and .to manually copy thereon, as
7closely as possible, the appearance. of the texture .and `Weave of the: clothes exhibitedby the figures. Obviously this inv-.elves the most painstaking labor ofjskilledartists, and
in most cases the appearance .of theV texture and Weave of the goods so -manually repro- 440 duced is oli-.necessity imperfectlywrepresenh ed. From fashion-plate dummies so labori ously prepared, photographic reproductions are made in one ormore colors as desired, the reproduction, of course, embodying Whatever defects may exist in the dummy as originally prepared. ln my invention, l aim to eliminate a large part of the painstaking,
Work, forwhich skilled artists are employed, ,by the preparation of a'novelj dummy fashion-plate, in Whichy the texture and Weaveof the cloth itself, is displayed for the purpose of being photographed, or otherwise reproduced. Y f j ln the drawings: Figurel 1 isa view of a sheet of transparent material with a human figure outlined by a backgrc'nnid rendered 'Specication of Letters Intent. .appannmnnesemember 2a isla` sean No. 191,236'.

opaque-through the. use of suitable pigv`,'m ,ents;iFig. 2 is a view of the rear side of .saidtransparent material, showing `a number ,of sections of cloth arranged over the `transparent portion thereof; Fig. 3 is a .front-...view similar to Fig. 1, showing the .appearance of the .textile goods as displayed through thetransparent Window-like portion of the material; 4 is a similar View itional possibilities in. thedisplay of two or more different fabries;,and Figt5 v is a sectional View ltaken ,through the dummy.
ln the embodiment of my invention l`em Vploy a sheet Iof transparent material, such .as Celluloid, on the rearl side of which are painted the outlines 6 of aQhuman {igure,
v surrounding which isa background 7 rendered .opaque-,by suitable pigments except for that portion nclosed Within. the margi- ,nal lines 6. lt is to be understood that the invention has particular reference to the preparation of fashion-plates, so that theportion of lthe figure left transparent Within the marginal lines 6 is only that Which would ordinarily be clothed With outer garl ments made from the fabric `to be exhibited. Such portions 8a's the gloves, shoes, collar, face, hat, etc., would be artistically painted in,l.andbe rendered opaque by theapplicaf One or more sections of cloth `\8,Ifrom.
Atvhich'an outer vgarment is made areasecured vagainst the side of the sheet and arranged to b e displayed throughthe transparentportion .of the' ligure, thereby exhibiting in a ,true manner the texture, weave, and color of.
the garments as -actually worn. Except -vvhere such sections meet, itis not necessary that they be cut to any particular shape. As best shown in Figs. 2 and 3,v these sections,j for purposes of illustration, are represented as comprising lapel portions 10, two sleeve portions 11, and coat and trousers portions ltipn of the pigments, .preferably on the rear .si e.
so r
l2, the number of l:such sections depending` entirely `upon the postures in which the iigures are represented, and the manner in which they are dressed. The sections of material underlie the transparent portions of the sheet in such a Way as to have` their edges concealed eectively by the opaque background and marginal lines thereon.
In Fig. 3 the dress goods to be exhibited are shown as formed with a stripe, the sections of material 9 being laid in `position in ics iio
direction of the stripe in the dress goods as l. which it is exhibited. In order to more cor,-
worn. `Where the edges of thesections adjoin, shade lines representing creases orshadows may be painted over thetransparent portion of the sheet in an artistic manner so as to conceal effectively the. meeting edges of the cloth sections. After the sections of cloth have been arranged correctly about the transparent'portion of the sheet, a filling 13 of any suitable material may be used, if desired, against which a backing 14 may be secured in order to protect the assembled parts ofthe dummyrfashion-plate. In actualpractice it is customary to arrange several figures in one dummy, which are photographed together, and which constitute a single fashion-plate.
It is to be noted that in some instances the pattern in the weave ofthe dress goods may be of so large a size as to be Wholly disproportionate to the size of the figure with rectly maintain'theV proportions between the figure and the fabric pattern, it may be found desirable to photograph and reproduce in colors on a small scale a piece of dress goods, which colored photograph may then be used in lieu of the cloth itself to be exhibited through the 4transparent portion of the sheet. This practice may also be found desirable in cases where the dress goods. is so thick as to bulge forward the transparent portion of the sheet when -placed in position adjacent thereto, or when the ap-v pearance of the texture ofthe goods is al` tered by contact with the transparent surface.l
- From the foregoing description, it will be observed that the completed dummy fashion-l plate is one which supplements the work of an artist in outlining the figures 1n a pleasing and artistic manner by `clothing-the outlined'iguresfin `the actual material which .it
is intended to reproduce for display and ad vertising purposes. In thuspreparing the dummy, it is possible to faithfully reprogoods displayed, andto exhibit the same in a manner which will most eiiciently guide the purchaser in a selection of the desired material. .The employment of a transparent sheet of materialoutlined vand rendered opaque as described,is preferable to the use of an opaque sheet having portions bodily cut therefrom, in that it affords a more faithful representation of the clothed human figure, and in that it permits creases, pockets, and other characteristic features of a; lifelike figure to be painted or drawn upon those portions of the figure which overlie the fabric displayed therethrough. I. Inthe photographic reproductions made from a dummy -thus prepared, the built-up character of the 'plate dummy embodying a sheet having a transparent portion therein representing the silhouette of a clothed human figure, and a -plurality of sections of fabrics or fac-similes thereofl arranged to appear through said transparent portion, each said section of fabric being configured to conform with the adjacent sections, arranged to represent a ldefinite portion of the clothed figure,l and having its weave disposed in substantially the same direction as would appear in a faithful representation of the corresponding portion-ofa clothed figure, substantially as described. l
