IMPROVEMENT `IN SPECTACLE-CASES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 177,415, dated May 16, 187.6; application tiled March 10, 1576. Y
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, JOHN MISR, of Wash-- ington Court-House, in the county of Fayette and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Spectacle-0ases; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot' the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accom panying drawings, which forni partl of this specilication.
My invention relates to an improvement'in spectacle-cases 5 and it consists in securing to the back ofthe case two or more hooks turned in opposite directions for catching in the clothes, whereby the case can be attached to the person in any convenient place, so as to be always handy, and avoid the risk of being misplaced or lost.
The accompanying drawings represent my invention. a represents a case for spectacles or eyeglasses, made ot metal, wood, leather, cloth, or paper, or a combination of each, or any two. This case is open at both ends, as shown, and is made slightly larger at the upper than the lower end, so that the spectacles oreyeglasses may be readily inserted, and yet not allowed to fall through, or 'having slipped down into the case may bereadily pushed up from below. Secured to the back of this case are the/two hooks c, having their ends turned toward each other, as shown, so that they may catch in the clothes both from above and below, and thus defy any attempt to remove the case either accidentally or on purpose, unless gone about in a proper manner. By means of these hooks the case can be attached' to or detached from the clothes in a moment ot' time, can be kept in any convenient position about the person, and he pre vented from being mislaid or lost.
I am aware that various devices havebeen attached to the garments by means of a pin or a simple hook, and this I disclaim. My invention consists in the application ot' a hook at each end of a spectacle-case, whereby it can be attached to the clothes without danger ot' displacement.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- As a new article of manufacture, a spectaclecase,'consisting of the case a, slightly tapering and open at both ends, and provided with the hooks c, turned in opposite directions, substantially as shown.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 6th day of March, 1876.`
