COLLAR FOR FLANNEL SHIRTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 463,884, dated November 24, 1891.
Application filed September 11, 1888. Serial No. 285,120. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ALFRED I-I. ANDERSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at La Crosse, in the county of La Crosse and State of \Visconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shirts, of which the following is a full and clear description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1 represents an inside view of the upper portion of a shirt, showing the collar turned up. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the unattached flap or inner edge of the collar thrown back to expose the internal pocket and stiffening-piece. Figs. 3 and at are views of stiffening-pieces removed. My invention relates to shirts, and particularly to that class known as negligee shirts, and my invention consists of the means hereinafter described and claimed for stiffening the collar of the shirt.
The object of my invention is to so stiffen the points and other portions of the collar of a woolen or other shirt that said collar will lie in its proper position, retain its shape, and be free from the wrinkles which usually appear in the collars of woolen, part woolen, and unstarched cotton shirts.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will now describe the same and indicate the manner in which the same is carried out.
In the drawings, A represents the upper portion of the body of the shirt, and B is the collar, the two edges a b of which are sewed to the top edge of the body portion, the said edge a being sewed throughout its length to the top edge of the body, while the inner edge Z) is sewed to said edge on the opposite side fora comparatively short distance as between the points 0 c d d, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
That portionof the lower inner edge Z) be-- tween the points 0 and d is not attached to the body portion, but is left free and formed with a flap e, which is provided with buttonholes or other fastenings for securing this flap to the inner top portion of the body of the shirt. By thus constructing the collar it is obvious an internal pocket is formed, access to which may be had from the inside of the shirt and through the medium of the loose flap (2. In ihe pocket thus formed I introduce a stiffening-piece orform D, of suitable material, suchascelluloidtmlonite, or, if preferred, a wirefiaine,said piece having a size and shape adapting it to about fill the pocket and to correspond with the curvature of the collar, whereby the latter/retains its shape and position. From thisdescription it will be seen the inserted stiffening-piece or form preserves the shape of the collar and prevents the unsightly wrinkles so common with woolen, part woolen, and unstarched cotton shirts, and when it is desired to wash the shirt the inner stiffening-piece or form may be readily removed by unbuttoning or loosening the flap 6, thus exposing the pocket in the collar and permitting the withdrawal therefrom of said piece.
While I have shown my invention as applied to the collar of a shirt, it is evident the means described may be applied with equal effect to the cuffs.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A collar for shirts, of flannel or equivalent material, comprising a body portion of two or more plies secured together at the outer edges and having the inner edge of one ply secured throughout its length to the band portion, and having an opening adjacent to said band portion, whereby a pocket and opening thereto is formed between said plies, ,in combination with a stiifening-piece, shaped like the collar, within said pocket, and means for re taining the same therein.
ALFRED I-I. ANDERSON.
