UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GOLDSBOROUGH ROBINSON, OF LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY.
IMPROVEMENT IN TOBACCO-PACKAGES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 145,451, dated December 9, 1873; application filed July 9, 1873.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, GOLDSBOROUGH ROBIN- SON, of Louisville, in the county of Jefferson and State of Kentucky, have invented a new and Improved Package for Tobacco; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification, in which the figure is a perspective view.
The invention relates to the outside covering or wrapper that surrounds the pocket in which cut tobacco is usually placed. It consists in the application of rows of shuck-leaves spirally about the pockets, one rowoverlappin g another so as to break joint, thus forming a fine moisture-and-air repellent that will retain all the fragrance and flavor of the tobacco, under nearly all circumstances.
In the drawing, A represents a package of tobacco inclosed by a coru-shuck, the leaves of which have been stripped from the stem around which they grow, and from which they shoot in a somewhat conical form, thus inclosin g the ear of corn which is centrally attached to said stem. I preferably discard the outside leaves, which are generally harsh and to some extent lacking in flexibility, but which may be softened and rendered pliable by any of the usual means, if desired. I then wrap spirally around the usual jacket or pocket in which the tobacco is placed, a series of leaves, the second binding the first, and the third the second. They are folded over at the ends, provided with a tie-ribbon, and then sealed at each end. The leaves of the corn-shuck possess a water-repellent property and a flexibility which make them even preferable to paper, foil, or cotton, which have been heretofore used, while they are greatly cheaper and more easily obtainable in a tobacco-growing country.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A wrapper consisting of a series of rows of corn-shuck leaves arranged spirally around a cut tobacco pocket, and each row binding ppon a next adjacent one, in the manner set orth.
GOLDSBOROUGH ROBINSON.
