Umbrella Non Disappearing.

Non.disappearing umbrellas have
in England as the result of
the brain work of an English inventor.
At the tip is a strap that one may
put around the wrist and feel sure
that the protector is always present.
This causes the umbrella to be car
ried upside down, which prevents the
ribs from opening up part way when
not secured by the catch at the bot
tom. The rain shield is only 90 inches
long when closed. and when it is open
the strap disappears inside the handle.
