The lower longitudinal edge of the trousers bar strip H! has fo-ldably connectedthereto a trousers bar flap 23, the connection'being along a fold or 'scored line 24.

W The clothing store or tailoringestablishment willhave on hand" a pile of the coat hangers in fiat forme /Vi ien itf'is desiredto use acoat hanger "the" operation or manipulation of lbendingithe, several wings and'fiap into proper position is easily and quickly accomplished For instance,
the vstrip M which becomes the-inner top layer of: the reinforced trousers bar is first folded through-the slot Hv so-asto assume a position ,substantially atright angles to the trousersbar strip is. V Thereafter,-the entire trousers bar flap flap 23" is additionally caused to break or fold along someof the fold lines 29 so that the outer edge portion 25 of the flap 23 may-then be pushed substantially horizontally through the slot H overlapping the previously inwardly folded "flap 7 M, The fla'pi23is locked in its efiective position by flexing the shoulders 2'! pastthev shoulders H at vthe ends of the slot It and then engaging the flap grooves 28 with'the grooves mat the corner base portions of the" slot H, whereupon the entire flap 23 will be locked in the position at Fig. 2. Proper arched formand curvatureof the-portions 25and 26 0f the flap 23 is effected by bending or flexing the same-on the groups of break lines 29;
The webs 3e "andfthe stock at the end portions or the flap 23 "permit thebent portions of the flap shape, as'best shown in Figs; 2 and 3. Here againv I or a coat supported by the hanger.
Following the quickarrangement of the flap 23 win its effective position; the shoulder Wings 18 are broken slightly along thei'r'fold lines Zlfafld arearranged in a rearwardly curved or arched the webs 22 and'stock at the ends of the wings aid in preventing angularity of the rolled wings and give a proper rounding to the same.

The coat hanger, while imperfectly fiat form ior packing stor-i age, andfshipping, can be quickly arranged for,
