taarten sraras asians GEORGE T. swEETsER, or NEW YORK, 1v. Y.
COLLAR.
Application mea May 21, 1925. serial 4No. 31,784.
.To aZZ 10p/tom t may concer/a.' j l Be it known that I, 'GEORGE T. SWEETSER, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York city, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Collars, of which the following is specification.
My invention relates to improvements in collars either of the type permanently attached to a shirt or detachable therefrom and relates particularly to the type generally known as soft collars although it is also applicable to so-called stiff collars. It is my primary object to provide a collar that will allow for any possible shrinkage occasioned by laundering and thus obviate the necessity of the wearer in buying oversized collars, slitting buttonholes, or discarding the collar or shirt prior to its wearing out because of shrinkage that will not permit of continued use.
It is also my invention to provide a collar constructed so as to allow for different spac` ings of the same 0n the neck, thereby permitting the effect of the wide spaced collar or a closely spaced one, according to the desire o-f the wearer.
An important feature of my invention is the provision of a collar having an adjustment to accomplish the above set forth advantages, ywhich adjustment when in use is hidden and the collar appears always the same as the average collar now on the market.
It is still further my invention to provide such a collar, the construction of which does not involve any radical change of collars of any type and one that is unusually economical to manufacture, and also to provide such a collar that will not be easily torn or distorted by laundering. In order that a full and clear understanding may be had of my invention I will now proceed to describe the same, reference being made to the accompanying drawing which shows the preferred form thereof.
In the drawings,
Figure l represents a perspective view of my improved collar attached to a shirt. Figure 2 is a horizontal section of the ends of the neckband of the collar.
In the drawings, A represents vmy improved collar made of a plurality of plies of fabric adapted to be permanently attached to a shirt B or to be detachable therefrom. The collar band C is provided with the usual extension or tab D in front, and inthe construction shown this tab or extension is slightly lo-nger than in the average collarand has the usual buttonhole E thereiu which extends through all of the plies of Vwhich the band or collar is made. In addition tothe buttonhole E, I provide a supplemental buttonhole F placed nearer to the front end of the extension D than the buttonhole E and adapted to extend only through the back plies of cloth in the tab. The front ply G of the extension is not sewed to the back plies from a point designated approximately by the line X-X in proximity to the buttonhole E. This loose front ply G, therefore, will effectively conceal the buttonhole F whether the same is in use or not, thereby preserving the appearance of the collar in hiding the adjustment or hole I?, and it will readily be seen that 'this loose ply G can be easily lifted when it is desired to insert a button in the front buttonhole F.
In the above description, it will be apparent that I have provided an improved collar that is superior to collars of this general adjustable type, one that in no way disturbs the use of the regular buttonhole, one that is exceedingly simple and economical to manufacture, unusually neat in appearance, due primarily to the loose front ply hiding the supplemental buttonhole, and one that possesses all of the advantages hereinbefore set forth.
I am aware that it is not new to provide a collar with a plurality of buttonholes to allow for adjustment but obviously by my improved construction a neater and better article of this type is provided.
While the above description applies to the preferred form of my invention, obvious changes may be made well within the spirit thereof. For instance, the back ply may be loose with respect to the front ply. Also quite obviously, instead of a single ply being loose, two or more plies may be loose with respect to two or more relatively stationary plies, and the same purposes and advantages be accomplished.
Having now disclosed my invention,what I claim is:
l. A. collar having a neckband provided at one end with an extended tab, a buttonhole formed in the tab carrying end of the band, a buttonhole formed in the tab, and a flap carried by the band and overlying the buttonhole in the tab to conceal that buttonhole.
2. A collar having a neokband formed of a plurality of plies of material, a tab pro- 5 vided at one end of the hand by extensions formed on a part. of the plies of the hand, a huttonhole formed in the hand at the end having the tab, a buttonhole formed in the tab, and the remaining ply of the band loeing extended to ov-crlie the tab to form a loose flap for concealing the huttonhole in the tab.
3. A collar having a neekhand formed of a plurality of eo-extensive plies of material and having;` an extended tab portion at one end thereof` the outer plT of the tab portion being loose with respect to the inner pliesT a huttonhole at the end of the hand having the tab and extending through all of the plies.y and a huttonhole extending through the inner plies oi the tah portion, whereby it will be concealed by the loose outer ply of the tab. l
In testimony whereof T aflix in v signature GEORGE T. SWEETSICR.
