the County of Middlesex Label Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of
the said invention for AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE MANUFACTURE OF NECK TIES
CRAVATS OR BOWS FOR PERSONAL WEAR to be as follows:-
My invention has for its object an improvement in the manufacture of Neck
Ties Cravats and bows for Personal Wear and consists in a novel mode of com-
bining therein of paper or vegatable parchment with linen or other textile fabric
and cardboard whereby a neck tie cravat or bow of effective appeareance and
suitable character may be produced with considerable economy in cost of pro-
duction for this purpose I form a portion called the front of the neck tie cravat
or bow of paper or vegatable parchment and I form as a seperate peice the inside
or the back portion of the neck tie cravat or bow of linen or other textile fabric
and cardboard these latter peices I connect or unite with the paper or vegatable
parchment portions which forms the front part of the neck tie cravat or bow
which is exposed to view when in wear the tie cravat or bow is thus formed of
two and three peices of material an outside and an inside portions one of paper
or vegatable parchment the other of linen or other textile fabric and cardboard
the latter peices is pasted or otherwise attatched to the front portion which is to
form the neck tie cravat or bow and I preffer to connect or unite the same by
turning the edges or margins of the former over the edges or margins of the latter
and there pasting or otherwise attatching them togather whereby a better edge is
obtained I then force or press the whole portions thus pasted or cemmented
togather with an ordinary press into dies or moulds made suitable for the purpose
which produces the shape form or figure desired to represent the neck tie cravat
or bow I then remoove the same from the die or mould which is afterwards dried
glazed or varnished by the ordinary well known means I some times form the
neck tie cravat or bow in two or more seperate parts as an example I form
the body or the tail or bottom end of the neck tie cravat or bow in one or more
parts according to the shape required and I form the top portion known as the
knot or bow in one or more parts and when thus made the parts are attatched or
united togather by ordinary means either stitched or sewn with wire or thread

page_text: ALFRED GEORGE SPEIGHT of No 3, Forston Street Shepherdess Walk, Hoxton
in the county of Middlesex Label Manufacturer- do hereby declare the nature of
the said invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANUFACTURE OF NECKTIES CRAVATS
OR BOWS FOR PERSONAL WEAR and in what manner the same is to be performed,
to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
My invention has for its object an improvement in the manufacture of neckties,
cravats, and bows for personal wear and consists in a novel mode of combining
therein of paper or vegetable parchment with linen or other textile fabric and
cardboard whereby a necktie cravat or bow of effective appearance and suitable
character may be produced with considerable economy in cost of production for
this purpose I form a portion called the front of the necktie cravat or bow of
paper or vegetable parchment and I form as a separate peice the inside or the
back portion of the necktie cravat or bow of linen or other textile fabric and
cardboard these latter peices I connect or unite with a paper or vegetable parchment
portions which form the front part of the nectie cravat or bow which is exposed
to view when in wear. The necktie cravat or bow is thus formed of two and.
three peices of material an outside and an inside portions one of paper or vegetable
parchment the other of linen or other textile fabric and cardboard the latter peices
are pasted or otherwise attached to the front portion which is to form the necktie
cravat or bow and I prefer to connect or unite the same by turning over the edges
or margins of the former over the corresponding edges of the latter and then
pasting or otherwise attaching them together whereby a better edge is obtained
I then force or press the whole portions thus pasted or cemented together with
an ordinary press into dies or moulds made suitable for the purpose which produces
the shape form or figure desired to represent the necktie cravat or bow I then
remove the same from the die or mould which is afterwards dried glazed or
varnished by the ordinary well known means I sometimes form the necktie cravat
or bow in two or more separate parts as an example I form the body or the tail
or bottom end of the necktie cravat or bow in one or more parts according to the
sbape desired and I form the top portion known as the knot or bow in one or
more parts and when thus made the parts are attached ore united together by
ordinary means either stitched or sewn with wire or thread or metal eyelets or
well known fasteners or means in some cases the entire sheet of paper or vegetable
parchment may be pasted together with a sheet of linen or other textile fabric
and cardboard so as to form one solid body from which suitable peices may be cut
to form the necktie cravat or bow either in one or more parts but by this method
the necktie cravat or bow would present what is called a raw edge and I prefer
the former method as before described in describing the paper or vegetable
parchment I wish it to be understood that I also refer to imitation parchment
which is in reality a paper the said paper or parchment I have dyed and printed
upon prior to the portion being cut out to form the necktie cravat or bow by the
ordinary well known means.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
First. The improved necktie cravat or how herein before described in so far as
regards the combination therein of portions of paper or vegetable parchment with
linen or other textile fabric and cardboard.
Second. The mode of obtaining an improved edge by turning the edge or margin
of the paper or parchment over the corresponding edge or margin of the linen or
other textile fabric or cardboard as described.
Third. In forming the necktie cravat or bow in or with dies or moulds either
with or without a folded edge.
