PICTURE HANGER.
APPLICATION FILED Ammo. 1914.
mwmwo Patented Mar.23,1915.
wwanlioz JOHN L. WOLKE, 0F JACKSONVILLE, ILLINGIS.
PICTURE-HANGER.
Application filed April 10, 1914.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN L. WOLKE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jacksonville, in the county of Morgan and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Picture-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention. relates to picture hangers.
T ie devices now in common use embody an integral device having reversely bent hooks, one of larger size than the other to engage over the bead of the picture molding. These types of hooks are extremely insecure and frequently become disengaged from the molding, thereby allowing the picture to drop with the result that the frame and glass are usually broken.
it is the object of this invention to avoid the disastrous results accompanying the use of these devices and to provide an equally simple device which cannot become accidentally disengaged from the picture molding.
Further objects of the invention will appear as the following description is read in connection with the accompanying drawing, which forms a part of this application, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of one of the devices. Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof showing the same applied to the picture molding. Fig. 3 is a top plan view showing the wire receiving notches and cord hook.
In the specific embodiment of the invention as illustrated herein the device is constructed of a single piece of metal bent at Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 23, 1915.

right angles intermediate its length to form a shoulder 1 arranged to engage the shoulder 2 on the picture molding 3. The piece is then bent upwardly and outwardly on the arc of a circle as shown at 4 to fit the head head 5 on the molding and is then bent back upon itself in the form of a hook 6 which is notched upon its side, as shown at 7, to receive the picture cord and to prevent accidental disengagement thereof. The straight end 8 is adapted to engage behind a picture molding and against the flat side thereof, as shown in Fig. 2, and preferably has its end rounded off, as shown in Fig. 1, so as to facilitate its insertion. This end may be slightly sharpened for this purpose if found to be desirable, but as hangers of this form may be constructed of relatively thin metal sharpening of the end is believed to be unnecessary.
VVhat is claimed is 11. picture hanging device constructed of a single piece of metal, a hook formed at one end of the piece, a portion of the piece adj acent the hook being formed to fit the upper portion of the molding and a flat, right-an gular extension adapted to fit behind the picture molding and between the same and the wall.
In testimony whereof I aiiiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
