SHlRT-BOS OM.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 285,699, dated September 25, 1883.

Application filed January 22, 1883. (No model.) i

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SALI STARK, of the city,

county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shirt- 1lgosoms, of which the following is a specifica- 1on. i

This invention has reference to an improved detachable shirt-bosom; and it consists of a bosom provided with a button-hole in its neckband, and with button-holes or other fastenmg devices at or near the upper corners thereof.

In the accompanying drawings, Figures 1 and 3 represent both sides of my improved detachable and reversible shirt-bosom, one side being finishedwith. one plait and the other side with two plaits, andFig. 2 is a vertical transverse section of the same.

upper corner, at some distance from the neck-' band a, with a button -hole or other fastening device, (I. The neckband a is provided with a button-hole, a, for the front collar-button.

Thethree button-holes a and'd (I serve for attaching the bosom at three points. to the shirt with which it is to be used, as will more fully appear by reference to separate application for Letters Patent for an improved shirt filed at the same time herewith.

My improved shirt-bosom is made interchangeable and reversible and has a front finish on both sides, with a single plait on one side, as shown in Fig. 1, and two plaits on theother side, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, which enables the wearer to reverse it whenever he desires to do so.

The neckband of my improved shirt-bosom is made narrow at the front and is gradually increased in width from the center button-hole the wide portions prevent the riding of the collar on the edge of the band of the bosom, While the narrow front part is hidden from view by the band of the collar.

I am aware that detachable shirt-bosoms have been used heretofore, but they were provided with a single button-hole only for attaching the bosom to the front collar-button, which is objectionable, as the bosom is liable to shift and change its place, which is impossible with my improved shirt-bosom.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A detachable shirt-bosom provided with a neckband, a, extending to near the top of the shoulders of the shirt, and narrower at the button-hole in the center than at the ends of said band, button-holes d d, or other suitable fastening devices, at the outer edges of the bosom, near the top, and a fastening device at the bottom, substantially as described. I 2. A detachable and reversible shirt-bosom provided with a neckband, a, extending to near the top of the shoulders of the shirt, and narrower at the button-hole in the center than at the ends of said band, button-holes d d, or other suitable fastening devices, at the outer edges of the bosom, near the top, and a fasten ing device at the bottom, the said bosom being finished on both sides and adapted to be worn alternately with either side out.

In testimony thatI claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in pres ence of two subscribing witnesses.

SALI STARK.
