'TUNE VIOLA SIEGEL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

AUTOMOBILE-verri.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Nov. 22, 1910.

Application filed. June 8, 1910. Serial No. 565,849.

To all whom tt may concern:

Be it known that I, JUNE V. SIEGEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Automobile-Veils; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in automobile veils and the object in view is to generally improve upon the construction of veil upon which I have been granted Letters Patent of the United States No. 958,329, dated May 17, 1910.

In carrying out the present invention, it is my purpose to utilize a cord, elastic or otherwise, adapted to hold the veil over the head and about the neck of the wearer and have practically the same effect as would be the case if a draw string were employed.

My invention comprises various details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts which will be hereinafter fully described and then specifically dened in the appended claim.

I illustrate my invention in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved automobile veil. Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the application of the veil to the head of a person and illustrating the two edges of the veil brought together and fastened by buttons and loop preparatory to drawing the veil about the neck and fastening the same. Fig. 3 is a view showing the elastic string passed about the neck of the wearer and in readiness to be secured to one of the buttons, and Fig. 4 is a similar view showing the elastic string fastened to one of the buttons and showing the veil held about the neck.

Reference now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates a veil having two buttons, designated respectively by letters B and C, fastened to one of the marginal edges of the veil and spaced apart at any suitable distances, said buttons being secured at such locations as to allow space between the same to pass about the head or hat upon the head of a wearer and allow the buttons to be brought together in the positions shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. A loop D is fastened toone of said buttons B and is caught over the other button C in the manner shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. Fastened to one of the buttons B is an elastic string provided with a suitable covering E which 1s gathered and which presents a broader surface to the veil than would be the case in the event of an elastic cord being used without the covering.

In applying the veil, the edge of the latter intermediate the two buttons, shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, is placed over the head of the wearer or the hat upon the head of the wearer and the two buttons brought together and fastened by means of the loop, as shown in Fig. 2. The wearer then, taking the loop in the manner shown, passes the elastic cord with its covering about her neck, causing the veil to be drawn in in the manner shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. After the elastic string is brought entirely around the neck of the wearer, the loop F is caught over the button C and the veil securely held in place. After the veil has been thus secured, the ends thereof may be fastened together by tying or left hanging as may be desired.

By the provision of an automobile veil as shown and described, it will be noted that a simpleand efficient means is afforded whereby the veil may be securely held over the head of the wearer without the use of puckering string as heretofore contemplated in the patent referred to, the effect of holding the veil being practically the same.

What I claim to be new is An automobile veil having buttons fastened to one of the longitudinal marginal edges thereof, a loop fastened to one button and adapted to engage the other button and adapted to hold portions of the edge to which the buttons are fastened slight dis- In testimony` whereof I hereunto aiiix my canoes omeaoh othergiand an elastic string signature in the presence of two Witnesses. fastened to one of said buttons and adapted to surround and hold the Veil about the neck i I JUNE VIOLA SIEGEL 5 of a person, a loop at the end of said string Witnesses:
