Making Of Them a Business by Itself
millions Turned Out Annually.
There is n man in the business
who in 1909 will have been making
cap visors for half a century, and he
isn't such an old man either. He
started at the trade as a boy in 1859.
working for a concern of which now
he is the head, which was then es-
tahl!shed in a building at Broadway
and Rector street, where the Empire
building now stands. He recalls the
fact that when the war broke out they
worked night and day turning out Wis
ors for soldiers caps.
The manufacture of cap visors is q
business by itself. Only about fifteen
concerns are engaged in it. of which
number all are in this city save two

manufacturers all over the country.
producing in the aggregate millions of
them annually.
For the very cheapest cloth caps
vlsors are made of c%ardboard paper
or of imitation leather covered COW
cred with the cloth of which the cap
body is made. For other grades of
cloth caps visorS are made of various
sorts Of light leather, and for some
cloth caps of fine quality there are
now used, because it is lighter than
leather. visors made from a heavy,
specially wovcn and waterproofed can
vas.
For vlSCrS there is now made an
imitation leather composed of book
binders board and what is called
m%oleskin. the two being cemeuted to-.
gether under pressure, In a made up
cap, where it's edge could 0 be seen,
this material might pass even an ex-

Take the country at large and caps
are not used by people in general for
ordinary wear so much as they were
fifty years ago, but caps are still worn
In great numbers by Younger people
and by sportsmen and travellers and
golf players. and of uniform caps Of
n sort and another there are now
worn 500 per cent more than twenty
years ago
A very simple little thing a cap visor
might seem, but great numbers OF
them are used. and in a factory where
they make them you would find around
rolls and sides of leather or other ma
t%crials. and hundreds Of dies and
