Description
@nimh faire datent @Hita CELIUS E. RICHARDS, OF NORTH ATTLEBOR, -MASSACHUSETTS Laim Patent No. 64,145, (zaad April 23, 1867.
IMPROVEMENT AIN HATS.
TO ALL'WHQB'I IT.v MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, CELIUS E. RICHARDS, of North Attleboro, in the county of Bristol, and State of Massa chusetts,have invented a new and improved Hat or Bonnet of Paper; and I do hereby declare that the following is n `full, clear, and exactA description of the'same, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, making part 'of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a misss hat constructed' in accordance with'my improvementg'and Figure 2 is a top view of the same.
By the well-known.methods of making hats or bonnets from straw, palm leaf, and similar material, the material is first reduced to strips of suit-able width and length, and these are braided by hand into bands of ve strands, more or less, and these bands are sewn together into the requisite'form for the hat or 'bon-net` or the hat or bonnet is built up from the centre ofthe crown by plaiting a small number of strands of the material together atfirst, and afterwards' adding to and multiplying the number of strands as the circumference of the fabric is increased, or reducing the number of the strands, as the case may require, according' to the/shape `of the article, the ends of the added strands being suffered to protrude a short distance from the inside of the fabric, and, after the work is completed, being trimmed olf evenlynvith the surface, if desired.` In lieu of straw, palm leaf", and other natural material, paper has been cut into slips'or strips of the required width, and woven or plaited in the manner mentioned, and afterward bound together by means of a dressing of varnish, and
finally protected from Vinjury by wetting or moisture by covering the fabric, after it is converted into the desired shape, with one or more applications of the varnish to make it water-proof, upon which the durability of the fabric, as well as the shape of the article, chiefly depends. v v
The object of my invention, however, is to employ paper in such a form as to be equally durable with the straw or palm leaf, and be treated in all respects like those materials in the variety of manipulations and the usage to which hats and bonnets are likely to be subjected. j
My improvement consists in fabricatingl hats, bonnets, and similar articles `from paper twisted while moist with soule giutinous material into thread or twine, and afterwards braided into plaits or bands, or woven or plaited together in the usual way. By twisting tlre fibres of the paper they are united firmly and compactly together, which gives the material great strength and durability, which is greatly enhanced in the fabric when a multitude of such threads or twines are woven or plaited together, so that the hat or bonnet that is fabricated from paper in this way possesses all the durability of straw or palm leaf, and from the nature of the material it may be treated by the same processes and subjected to'the same usage `and exposure to the weather without injury.
The kinds of paper which I prefer for the fabrication of my improved hat or bonnet, are those made from straw or grasses, or similar vegetable material, as such paper may be dyed and bleached'by the same processes and with the same Substances A as are now employed by manufacturers and others in palm-leaf and straw goods, so that my improved article may be readily substituted for those of straw, Snc., with advantage to both the manufacturer and consumer. i l
There is a considerable advantage growing out of the fabrication of hats and bonnets of paper, thread, or twine,'in the ability to produce such articles at a cheaper cost than can be'p'ossible with any material composed of detached lengths or pieces like those of straw and palm lea-f heretofore' employed, in that the said paper, thread, or twine can be producedin a continuous piece of any length, and be spooled and braided upon wellknown machinery for spooling other threads and twines, and with the same rapidity, sovthat hand-braiding may be entirely dispensed with,`there by reducing the cost of producing all the varieties of this kind of braid more than one hundred fold. My said improvement is obviously applicable to the fabrication of hats, caps, and bonnets of various forms, all of which are included under the term hat, as a covering for the head. l
Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by LettersPatent,"'is-' A hat fabricated of paper thread or twine, substantially as described, asa new manufacture.
