TAG.
APPLICATION TILED APR. 29, 1009.

' 3/93 huzoaeo a m DAVID PELTON MOORE. OF VASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.
TAG.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 22, 1910.
Application filed April 29, 1909. Serial No. 492.874.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID Pnuron Mooini, a citizen of the United States, residing at \Vashington, in the District of Columbia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tags, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to an improved tag, that is a tag made from a flexible fabric. such as twilled tape, this particular tag, being the product of my tag'forniing and affixing machine, which is set forth in my application for patent filed February 13th, 1909, Serial No. 47 7,7 87.
I have found by tests, that the only form of tag, which will at all times he flat, so that the marks placed thereon can always be visible, must be held in such position by two or more staples, and that in order to prevent the prongs of the staples from tearing through the ends of the tag, the tearing or cutting strain from the prongs of the staples being toward the short edges, and thus allowing the tag to either fall off or have the freed end curLup, that the tag must be provided with selvage or hemmed edges and the body of the staples for securing the tags in place, must parallel said edges with the cutting edges of the prongs of the staples toward the selvages and not toward the frayed or cut edges, as is the usual custom. By doing this, I overcome the great disadvantages of the cloth tags now in use for laundry marking purposes,
and also dispense with the metal-backed,
tags, of the antiquated class of marking.
To clearly illustrate my invention, attention is invited to the accompanying drawings, in which:-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my preferred form of tag. Fig. 2 is a similar View, employing a wire staple. Fig. 3 is a plan view of another form of tag, employing four attaching staples.
Referring to the drawings :--the numeral 1 designates, the tag, which is cut with my machine from a spool or reel of tape, of the desired width, to form the proper length tag, the said tape being provided with the two selvage edges 2, which is the great point of wear upon all tags of this class, this wear being occasioned by the pull upon the tag toward their short edges 2, whereby the prongs, either of the flat type 3 or the round type 3, cut out toward the point of least resistance. lVhere the flat type 3 is employed their cutting edges a are toward the short edges or selvages 2. As seen in Figs. 1 and 2, the tag is provided with two securing staples 3 and 3, the staple 3, being a Hat non-corrodible metal staple.
The staple 3, is made of a strand of wire, but both staples are pierced through the tag, and parallel the selvage edges of the tag. It will thus be seen that in laundrying, that the long edges t may fray, but as the great pull upon the tag is toward the selvage edges, the staples will not so readily cut through, in the same manner as they would should the edges be frayed or cut, as are found upon other tags.
The tag 5, shown in Fig. 3, is made wider than the other tags, and is especially adapted for use upon clothing, and bolts of material, where it is desired to place an identification tag, which must carry enough information to properly identify the goods. I have also found that it is useful in marking drummers samples. In this form the edges (3, are the selvage edges, and I employ the four staples 7, and the other two edges 8, are the cut ones, this tag being formed from a reel or spool of tape, similarly to the two staple tag, and therefore embodying the same principle, of having the staples parallel the selvage edges.
\Vhat I claim, as new, is
1. As an article of manufacture, a fabric tag of a single thickness having two opposed selvagcs, and flat metal staples having their body portions paralleling the selvages and their prongs piercing the tag near the selvages, the cutting edges of the prongs being toward the selvages.
2. As an article of im'uiufacture, a tag cut from a strip of tape having two selvages, said tag being so cut that the two opposite short edges are selvages and the two opposite long edges are cut edges, and staples piercing said tag near the sclvagcs so that the body portion parallels said selvages.
3. As an article of manufacture, a tag out prongs being toward the selvages or lengthfrom a strip of tape having tWo selvages, said Wise of the tag. tag being so out that the two opposite short In testimony whereof I aflix my signature edges are selvages and the two opposite long in presence of two Witnesses. edges are out edges and flat metal staples DAVID PELTON MOORE. having their body portions paralleling the Vitnesses: selvages and their prongs piercing the tag A. M. PARKINs, near the selvages, the cutting edges of the G. M. SPRING.
