Miller & Co., Baltimore, Md., a partnership Application April 9, 1954, Serial N0. 422,093
1 Claim. (Cl. 2-145) This invention relates to neckties and is more lparticularly concerned with the provision of means for holding the two ends of a four-in-.hand necktie together and in proper position relative to wearing apparel with which the necktie is customarily worn, such as a shirt.
To provide for the neat appearance of neckties of this type, it is customary to employ clasps, loop chains, stick pins, and other devices to hold the two ends of the necktie against the garment with which it is customarily worn. One of the objects of this invention is the provision of means for holding the necktie against the garment without the use of such devices.
lt is another object of the invention to removably attach the ends of a necktie to a shirt by means cooperating with the usual vertical rows of buttons of a shirt and in such a manner as to insure the fact that there will be no puckering of the necktie or of the shirt between the button and the shirt collar.
A further object of the invention is the provision of means of the type mentioned which includes one or more buttonholes associated with the necktie, the buttonhole or buttonholes being so arranged relative to the necktie as to insure the registry of at least one buttonhole with a shirt button.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of such means which do not require any special construction of the necktie and which does not involve any deformation or perforation or other injury to the necktie.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of such means which can readily be attached and removed from the necktie.
These and other objects of the invention will be apparent and fully understood from the following description considered together with the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an ordinary shirt showing a necktie thereon containing one embodiment of this invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view along the line 2-2 of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of a portion of the necktie and shirt showing the parts in attached relation.
Fig. 4 is a rear perspective View of a portion of the necktie on a larger scale showing the position of the vertical strip member of the same embodiment and its inturned end iiaps.
Fig. 5 is a rear view of a fragmentary portion of a necktie illustrating a second embodiment of the invention.

Fig. 7 is a rear view of a fragmentary portion of a necktie illustrating a third embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 8 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line 8-8 of Fig. 7.
Fig. 9 is a rear View of a fragmentary portion of a necktie illustrating a fourth embodiment of the invention.
2,749,553 Patented June 12, 1956 ICC Fig. l0 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line 10--10 of Fig. 9.
Fig. 11 is a perspective view of a vertical strip illustrating a fifth embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 12 is a rear View of a fragmentary portion of a necktie illustrating a sixth embodiment of the invention.
Figs. 13 and 14 are fragmentary sectional views illustrating other methods of attaching the vertical strip member to the necktie.
Referring with more particularity to the drawing in Which like numerals designate like parts throughout the different views, the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 comprises a vertical strip member 21 in cornbination with an ordinary four-in-hand necktie 22 having a horizontal keeper strip 23.
The keeper strip 23, as `already known in the art, is attached at its ends, such as by stitches 24 and 25, t0 the back of the wider end 26 of the necktie, `forming thereby a loop through which the narrower end 27 of the necktie is passed, after the necktie is tied to the collar 28 of a shirt 29 or other similar garment.
In accordance with the present invention, the vertical strip member 21 is attached to the back of the narrower end 27 and has a vertical row of buttonholes 30 for attachment to one of the buttons 31 of the shirt, said buttons being normally disposed in a vertical row behind the necktie.
The vertical strip 21 may be attached to the necktie in any desired manner, but it is preferred that it be attached in such a way as to assure the fact that at least one of the buttonholes 3i) will lie in registry with one of the shirt buttons 31 below the keeper strip 23 without puckering of the necktie or of the shirt. For example, the upper and lower ends 32 and 33 of the strip 21 may be, as illustrated, folded behind the remaining portion of the strip and connected to the necktie by stitches 34 and 35, respectively, recessed from the resulting corresponding fold edges 36 and 37 to permit a vertical displacement of the row of buttonholes in an amount suliicient to insure registry of at least one buttonhole 3i) with one shirt button. Alternatively, the strip member 21 may be made of an elastic material to permit stretching it the necessary distance to eifect such registry in any particular case.
ln the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6, the vertical strip member 38 is in the form of a full loop which is slidably held in position by a pair of vertically spaced bands 39 and 46. The loop covers the distance between a consecutive pair of buttons of the shirt and, therefore, requires only one buttonhole el.
In the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 7 and 8, the vertical strip 42 is secured at its ends 43 and 44 directly to the narrow portion of the necktie, such as by stitches 45 and 46, and the buttonholes are disposed in staggered relation. This is illustrated in the drawing by two vertical rows of buttonholes 47 and 43 in side by side relation, the buttonholes being staggered between the rows and overlapping.
The embodiment illustrated in Figs. 9 and 10, is similar to that of Figs. 7 and 8, except that a single vertical row of diagonal buttonholes 49 is provided in overlapping relation in the vertical strip S0.
The embodiment illustrated in Fig. l1 comprises a vertical strip member 5'1 having an elongated vertical slot 52, said slot having a plurality of vertically spaced filamental web elements 53, such as thread, cord, or a narrow strip of material running across the slot to subdivide the slot into a number of consecutive and closely adjacent buttonholes 54. This may be done by webbing the slot with cross threads, cording, etc., or by cutting out material of the strip so as to leave the cross members as part of the original material.
In the embodiment illustrated in Fig. 12, a strip of resilient material 55 is provided with a buttonhole 56 at one end 57, the other end S8 being tucked under a fold of the necktie and secured in place by stitches 59, substantially as shown, or by any other suitable means.
Anothcr method of attaching the vertical strip member to the necktie is shown in Fig. 13 and consists in the vertical strip member 6) having its ends pleated to provide inwardly projecting intermediate portions 61 and 62 and outwardly projecting terminal portions 63 and 64 underlying the inteimediate portions. The terminal portions 63 and 64 are attached to the narrower end 27 of the necktie by stitches 65 and 66 or any other suitable means. An arrangement of this kind facilitates the attachment of the vertical strip to the necktie by conventional sewing machines, including those for blind stitching.
In Fig. 14, the vertical strip member 67 has only inturned end 68. This end is rst sewed to the necktie with a line of stitching 69 while being held in the position 20 shown in dotted lines. It is next folded along a transverse line 70 and the opposite end 71 is then laid down, as
4 shown by the full lines, and sewed to the necktie by a line of stitches 72.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
In a four-in-hand necktie having a Wider end and a narrower end and a horizontal keeper loop on the back of the wider end to receive and hold the narrower end thereto, a vertical strip on the back of the narrower end, said vertical strip having at least two vertical rows of buttonholes in mutually adjacent relation, the buttonholes of one row being in staggered relation to the buttonholes in the other row.
