SCARF HOLDER.

Application filed October 6, 1927. Serial No, 224,360

My invention relates to an improved holder for a necktie, the object being to proyide an eiiicient means whereby a necktie or scarf may be formed, ready for instant application to the wearers collar and collar button,so that it may be easily and quickly applied or removed and so that the scarf or necktie will be itself reinforced and supported.

In the drawings Fig. l is a perspective View of the rear side of one of my improved necktie holders as adapted to a four-in-hand tie;

Fig. 2 is a cross section of the deviceshown in Fig. 1, as it will appear in use;

Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a modification of the holder;

Fig. 4 is a perspective view of my improved holder as applied to a bow tie, and showing a modification;

Fig. 5 is a rear View of a: further modific'ation, similar in many respects to Fig. i;

Fig. 6 is a view of another modification Referring first to the forms shown in Figs. 1 and 2, 1 represents a iour-in-hand tie, which is mounted on what I may term a supporting strip 2, of resilient material, such as cellue loid. Secured to the back of this strip 2 in any suitable manner is a strip 3 to which, in turn, is secured an elastic buttonhole piece 4, which is preferably made of rubber or rubber--ike material, having a relatively small buttonhole passage 5 therein, which may be easily forced over the head of a button 6, so

that the ends of the strip 2 maybe tucked under the flaps of the collar 7. I

In Fig. 3 I have shown a modified form, in which a single resilient strip 2 is employed, the ends of this strip being folded back and secured together in any suitable way, as shown. Here, again, I employ the elastic buttonhole piece 4 with its but-tonholepassage 5.

In Fig. 4 I have shown a bow tie-8, mounted on a resilient strip 2 similar to the strip 2 of Fig. 1. In this modification I provide a backing strip 3 which is suitably secured to the back of the strip 2, but in this instance I provide a passage trough the strip 3 large enough to freely pass over the head of the button 6. In this case I secure to the strip 3 the rubber buttonhole piece 4;, the passage therethrough being less than the size of the button head, so that the holder and tie will be secured thereto and applied, and yet may be easily removed therefrom by the application of sufficient force.

In Fig. 5 the construction is substantially the same as in'Fig. 4, except that in this case I provide a flexible tie band 9, mounted on the resilient strip 2 What I claim is:

1. In a necktie holder, a resilient strip upon which the necktie may be placed and formed, a contractable buttonhole piece secured at the back of said strip, the buttonhole opening through said piece being smaller than-the button head to Which it is to be applied, and a resilient back strip connected with the first-mentionedstrip, onwhich separate strip said buttonhole piece is directly mounted.

2. In a necktie holder, aresilient strip upon which the necktie may be placed and formed, a contractable buttonhole piecesecured at the back of said strip, the buttonhole opening through said piece being smaller than the button headtowhich it isto be applied,

. and a resilient back strip connected with the first-mentioned strip, on which separates'trip said buttonhole piece is directly mounted, said back strip having a buttonhole passage larger than the head of the button, said buttonhole piece and the buttonhole passage registering and being located in the mid-portion of said back strip.
