The Making Of Them Is an Extensive
Business In Itself.
There is one 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 established in a build.
ing 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 visOrs for soldiers cans.
The manufacture of cap visors is a
business by itself. Only about fifteen
concerns are engaged in it. of which |
number all are in this city save two or |
three located in Philadelphia and Bos-
ton. New York supplies visors for cap
manufacturers all over the country.
producing in the aggregate millions of
them annually.
For the very cheapest cloth cans
visors are made of cardboard paper or
OF imitation leather covered 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 1t
is lighter than leather. visors made
from heavy. specially woven and !
canvas. .
FOR visors there IS now made an imi-
tation leather composed Of bookbind-
ers' board and what is called MOLE
SKIN the two being cemented together
Under pressure. In a madeup can.
where its edge could not be seen, this
material might pass even an expert for
Gather. The best leather visors are
made Of leather specially tanned and
prepared.
Take the country at large and caps
re not used by people in general for
ordinary wear so much as they were
fifty years ago but caps are still worn
great numbers by younger people
nd by spOrtsmen and travellers and
off players. and Of uniform caps of
