THOMAS E. LEWIS, OF VICKSBURG, MISSISSIPPI.
SHIPPING-TAG.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 274,348, dated March 20, 1883.
` Application led November 4,1882. (No model.)
To all 'whom 4it may concern Be it known that I, THOMAS E. LEWIS, of
l the city of Vicksburg, in the county of War- IOV ren and State of Mississippi, have invented certain Improvements in Shipping Cards or Tags, of which the following is the specification.
The object of this invention is to provide a shipping card or tag which may be attached to a tied parcel through the agency ofthe cord with which the package is secured; and it consists, broadly, in a card' having holes for the binding-cord of the parcel, with entrance-slots leading from them to the edge of the card, and adhesive flaps, which are turned over the said slots to prevent removal of the tag.
In the further description ot' my invention which follows reference is made to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof, and in Which- Figure I is view of the extended card before its application to the parcel. Fig. 1I shows the tag as applied to the package, and before it is secnred against removal, by means of its tlaps. Fig. III is a 'view similar to Fig. 1I, only that the flaps are shown as turned over and secured to the face of the tag. Fig. IV shows a modification in the construction of the tag, as hereinafter described.
Similar letters of reference indicate similar parts in all the views.
A. is the body ofthe tag, having the holes aandentrance-slots b, leading from them to the edge of the tag.
B B are flaps extending from the ends of the body A, as shown in Fig. I. As it is in tended that the aps B shall be turned over to close the entrance-slots b, the line of duplication is indicated either by printed dots cr by perforations, the former being shown in Fig. I, and represented by c. The whole or portions ot' the face of the ilaps B are treated with mucilage or some other adhesive'substance, in order that when the flaps are turned over they may be held firmly in place.
In Fig. IV the tag is shown as provided with additional ilaps C to strengthen the card around the hole a. The position of the secohdary tlaps, when the same are in place, is indica'ted by dotted lines. It will be understood that this tag can be easily applied to a tied package or bundle without removing or loosening the cord.
I cla-im as mylinvention- V A shipping card or tag having holes, with ehtrnce-slots leading from them to the edge ofthe card, and iiaps adapted to be turned and secured over the said entrance-slots, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
