IMPROVEMENT IN SHIRTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 146,972, dated January 27, 1874 g application led December 27, 1873.
` Atains to make and use my said invention or improvement without further invention or experiment.
My invention relates to an improved shirt bosom or front, which is especially useful for laboring-men or travelers. My improvement consists in providing shirt-s with two bosoms or fronts, which are so arranged that either can be exposed at pleasure by dropping or raising vertically a loose iiap.
Usually one of the bosoms will be of common colored goods, while the other will be of linen, and they are so arranged that when the colored or common bosom is exposed the linen bosom will be protected by it.
In order to more fully explain my invention, referenceis had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure lis afront view of my impro ved bosom. Fig. 2 is a perspective view.
A is a shirt. In order to provide the shirt with one ot' 1n y improved bosoms, I take a linen bosom, c, such as is ordinarily provided for fine Iinen shirts, and sew it to the shirt in the ordinary manner as far down as the letter b, which is about half the length of the bosom. I then take a common colored bosom, d, and sew its lower portion to the shirt the remaining length of the bosom down to the waist, thus leaving the lower half of the linen bosom and the upper half of thc colored bosom free at the middle line of the bosom. I then sew the two free portions together, as shown, so as to provide a Hap which, when turned up and buttoned or otherwise secured at the shoulder upon each side of the neck, exposes the colored bosom and protects the linen bosom; but when the tlap is turned down and buttoned or otherwise secured at the waist, the linen bosom will beV the street, he can always have a clean whiteshirt-front by unbuttoning the flap and turning it down.
Any suitable device can be employed for fastening the flap in place.
It is not absolutely necessary that one of the i bosoms be made of colored material, or even that the two bosoms be made of different material, as any kind of bosoms can be used, the object of my arrangement being to provide a means of protecting' one bosom while the other is exposed.
This arrangement will be especially useful for workmen and travelers,by providing them a ready means of appearing neat and clean, without the necessity of changing their shirts.
I am aware that shirt-bosoms have been made to fold to the side and thus change the fronts, and therefore I do not claim, broadly, the providing of two bosoms or fronts to a shirt.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
The two shirt fronts or bosoms c d, united together at their middle so as to provide a flap which can be turned vertically up or down, as
desired, substantially as and for the purpose /Ac above described.
In witness whereof, I hereunto set my hand and seal.
