Application filed. December 12, 1908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PHILIP LONDON, a citizen of the United States, and resident of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Enibroidery-Backings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to frames to be embroidered or otherwise ornamented, and which may form parts of boxes, picture frames, and similar articles, the covering of the box or frame being a fabric such as is commonly used for embroidering, etc.
The object of the invention to make both sides of the fabric accessible, so that the ornamentation may be effected after the fabric has been attached to the article, for which it is intended, and after the embroidery or other ornamentation has been applied, to cover and protect the under surface of the fabric, as will now be explained, reference being had to the accompanying specification and claims and the drawing, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a box embodying this invention. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the lid lifted and partly broken away. Fig. 3 shows a picture frame with the improvements applied thereto, and Fig. 4 is a rear view of the frame with the back partly broken away.
The invention is applicable to the ornamentation of work boxes, jewelry boxes, glove and handkerchief boxes, photo frames, picture frames and other household and toilet articles with a covering of fabric, on which the purchaser may stamp any desired pattern for embroidery, etc., and which may be embroidered after every other part of the article is finished.
After the embroidery or other ornamentation has been applied to any of the articles on which it may be used, a backing is provided to cover and protect the inner rough side of the work so that said side may not present an unsightly appearance or become torn.
In Figs. 1 and 2 a box is shown covered with a fabric to be embroidered. The lid 6 of the box is shown as being hinged but it may be otherwise applied to the open side of the box. Said lid consists of a frame 7 carrying a reinforcing piece 8, attached to its under side and being of smaller dimensions so that it may fit in the box. A portion of frame 7 is not covered by reinforcing Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 21, 1910.
Serial No. 487,313.
While working the embroidery, the panel 10 is removed whereby access is given to both sides of the fabric and the frame holds it smooth so that the work may be easily and evenly done. Any of the sides of the box may also be provided with openings to which embroidery or fancy needle work is applied, and suitable backings or panels provided to protect such openings. An ordinary photo frame may also be covered with the necessary fabric as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, said frame consisting of an outer portion 12 and an inner photo holder 13, the fabric occupying only the intervening space, and ardund this open space the design for ornamentation may be stamped or printed previous to being embroidered. The outer portion of the frame may be provided with grooves 15 around three sides, and the backing piece 16 inserted therein and locked in place by the pivoted tongue 17 on a block 18, the backing piece being cut away to fit the block.
To remove the backing piece the tongue 17 is turned aside and said piece is lifted to pass over the block 18.
After the articles above enumerated have been finished with the exception of the embroidered portion they may first be stamped or printed with the desired design and this can be made either by the maker or the pur chaser, as may be desired. The embroidery work or other form of needle work is preferably done by the purchaser who thereby may select a preferred color scheme and the article thus becomes essentially, that is, as far as relates to its ornamental portion, the handiwork of the purchaser, making it very desirable for gifts and for use for various purposes in the home.
What I claim is:
1. In an article of the character described, the combination of a frame, constructed with a central opening, a sheet of fabric stretched over and attached to the frame, a rigid detachable backing, fitting closely in the opening of the frame and means for holding the backing in its place.
2. In an article of the character described, Signed at New York in the county of New the combination of a frame, constructed York and State of N. Y. this eighth day 10 With a central opening, a sheet of emof Dec. A. D. 1908. broidery fabric stretched over and attached 5 to the frame, a rigid detachable backing covering up the back of the embroidery and Witnesses: fitting closely in the frame, and means for O. A. O. ROSELL, holding the backing in its place. FREDERICK L. SEARING.
PHILIP LONDON.
