CO RSET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 240,082, dated April 12, 1881.
Application filed January 26, 1881.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MoRRIs P. BRAY, of New Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut,'have invented a new Improvement in Corsets, and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specification, and represent, in-
Figure 1, a front view of the frontsection of thecorset; Fig. 2, transverse section of the part complete; Figs. 3 and 4 illustrate the method of making said section.
This invention relates to an improvement in the front or clasp section of a corset, the object being to construct the clasp double or'one steel partially overlapping the other, and from a single thickness of fabric-that is to say, Without stitching at the edge or making an overlapping pocket and theinvention consists in the construction, as hereinafter described, and particularly recited in the claim.
I first cut the front section from a single piece of fabric of sufficient width and shape that when doubled it will'form the complete section.
A B represent the folded section of the part 0 a, being the line upon which the part is doubled. Upon the under side of the portion B of this part I stitch a strip of fabric, 1), by a line of stitches parallel with the doubled edge, a, and distant therefrom less than the width 5 of the underlying or re-enforoing steel K. I then turn the portion A beneath the strip 1), as seen in Fig. 4, and turn the part B upward, so as to expose the edge of the strip b. I then run a line of stitches, 0, through the edge of 0 thepart b and the partA, which forms a pocket (Model) for the edge or underlying steel, as seen in Fig. 4. I then turn the part B down upon the part A, and distant from the line of stitches d equal tothe width of the principal steel h, I run aline ofstitches, i, parallel with the edge a, 4 5 which forms the pocket for the principal steel h, as seen in Fig. 2. Thus the front edge or section of the corset is made from a continuous piece of fabric without stitching at the edge or overlaying a pocket on the surface of the material. The re-enforcing-steel is held in close contact with the principal steel h, and cannot be displaced without destroying the corset.
I prefer to make the whole of the front section, as shown in Fig. 1, in one piece, by giving it the required shape atthe rear edge, yet it may be cut with the rear edge straight or parallel with the front edge and furnished to the trade as a clasp.
I do not wish to be understood as broadly 6o claiming a re-enforced or partly overlying steel in a corset, as such I am aware is not new; but
What I do claim is The herein-described improvement in corsets, consisting of the front edge made from the folded section of fabric A B, doubled at the edge a, with the strip 1), stitched upon. the inside of the part B, parallelwith the edge a, and on a line distant from the edge less than the width of the re-enforcing-steel K, the rear edge of this strip 1), stitched to the underlying part of the fabric to form a pocket for the reenforcing-steel K, then the two parts A B stitched together to form a pocket for the principal steel h, substantially as described.
