Application filed March 1,

To all whom it may concern Be it known thatl, HAROLD A.\REICH, a citizen otthe United States of America, residing at New York city, county of New York, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Methods of Cutting Fur Skins and Products Thereof, of which the following is a specification. I I

his invention relates to an improved method of cutting fur skins, particularly muskrat skins, and to the resulting gari'nents or other products thereof.

Heretofore, it has been customary to out dressed muskrat skins by severing to retain the so-called back or groetzen portion, the severed portions being discarded or employed with furs of other animals.

portions, to wit, the groetzen portion solely, t.

v the back portion and the belly portion. The resulting desired garments are of three types, namely, garments formed substantially solely of the groetzen portion, the second type of garments formed substantially solely of the intermediate portions and the third type of garments formed substantially solely of the belly portions.

t eir respective types characteristics of color' and hair formation and distribution and derive creased market values for all tive three types.

Further features and objects of the invention will be more fully understood from the following detail description panying drawings, in which- 1 lg. 1 is a rear plan view of a dressed Inuskrat skin, showing the manner of cutattaining the invention; 1g. 2 1s an elevational View of a garpossess distinctive greatly inof the respec- I have discovered that such garments of Serial No. 696,112.

eferring to the drawings, the skin 10 represents the usual finished inuskrat skin,

he invention, the skin is divided by ruled lines or equivalent marking into the groetzen portion 11, disposed between the lines 12, 13. two oppositely disposedflbelly portions 14, 15 are dis posed between the lines 16, 17 and the outer lateral edges of the skin. Accordingly, the intermediate portions 18,- 19, lie on opposite sides of the groetzen portion and are respectively the lines 12'and he required number necessary to'complete each garment,

that the fur thereof 1s formed of fur distribution.

tion and distribution The tone of the third type 22 of garments is lighter than the tone of the second type '21 of garments.

From the above, it will be apparent that my invention provides for the lltlllZittlOIi. of the entire parts of finished niuskra-t skins and like forms of skins of other animals. The resulting products possess enhanced values by reason of the substantially uniform tone and substantially uniform forma tion and distribution of hair, for the three Whereas I have described my invention by reference to specific forms thereof, it will 7 be understood that many changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. 4 I claim:

1. The method of cutting and connecting dressed fur skins of InflShl'dtS and the like, which comprises segregating each skin into three portions by four a central or groetzen portion, two belly portions and two port-ions intermediate said r central or groetzen-port1ons and the relines oi cutting into menace dressed fur @ins of niuskrats and the like,

which comprises segregating each skin into three portions by four lines of cutting into a central or groetzen portion, two v.bell'y portions and two portions intermediate said central or groetzen portion and the re spective belly portions and connecting to one another the central or groetzen portions of the respective skins to form a fur product.
