PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Scarfs, Ties, Bows, and the like.
We, WALTER TWEEDALE SHORE, and WALTER DOE, both of 9 and
10 Nicholl Square, London E.C., Tie and Scarf Manufacturer and Manager
therefor respectively, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
Our invention relates to improvements in scarfs, ties, eurekas, bows and the like
articles of dress, the object of which is to introduce for public use a style or
fashion, being a departure from, and an improvement upon, such articles as hitherto
made and used.
It has hitherto been customary to make these articles of dress in such a manner
that the whole of the seen portions thereof were of the same material and pattern,
but according to our invention we purpose making them so that the seen portion
consists of two or more different materials or patterns, which will give to the
article an airy, light and dressy appearance when due regard is paid to a suitable
blend of colors etc.
In the case of "knot" or sailor ties we purpose making these with the neck
band and the depending ends, of the same of one material, which may be of any
suitable fabric or pattern desired, while the bow or knot portion may be of any
other material of a different pattern or color, or of the same pattern but a different
color, or of the same color but a different pattern, to that of the remainder, or the
material for this portion of the tie may have woven therein, or printed thereupon,
a horse shoe, fox and whip, a foxes head, a dogs head or any other design, in
imitation of, and in such a position as to appear like, a scarf pin placed therein.
In the manufacture of bows and similar ties, the cross or bow portion would be
arranged in the same manner as the knot portion of the tie previously mentioned,
but in the case of eurekas, and similar flat, chest scarfs or ties, the upper or centre
portion only would be of material carrying a fancy design or pattern as described,
so as to differ from the material or pattern of which the remainder of the article
may be made.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Scarfs, Ties, Bows, and the like.
We, WALTER TWEEDALE SHORE, and WALTER DOE, both of 9 and
10 Nicholl Square, London E.C., Tie and Scarf Manufacturer, and Manager
therefor respectively do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement :-
Our invention relates to improvements in scarfs, ties, eurekas, bows and the like
articles of dress, and has for its object to introduce for public use, a style or
fashion, being a departure from, and an improvement upon such articles as hitherto
made and used.
It has hitherto been customary to make these articles of dress in such a manner
that the whole of the seen portion thereof when worn, was of the same material,
color and pattern, but according to our invention, in the making up of such articles
of dress we may employ one or more different materials, or one material of more
.

page_text: than one pattern or design, or the same material pattern or design in one or more
colors, and in or upon which is interwoven, embroidered, printed or embossed at
the part that in the usual way would be occupied by a dress pin or other ornament,
a design, mark or pattern in imitation thereof, and which for example may resemble
a dogs head, or head and whip, or a foxes head, or head and whip, or a horses head,
or head and whip, or a horse shoe, or shoe and whip, or a whip and spurs, or any
other mark, design or pattern, in one or any number of colors to attain the same
effect.
Our invention will be the better understood by reference to the accompanying
drawings, in which
Fig. 1 is an ordinary broad or chest scarf or eureka.
Fig. 2 is an ordinary set tie or sailors knot.
Fig. 3 is an ordinary set bow arranged to fasten at the back of the neck in the
usual way.
.
In the manufacture of set knot or sailor ties that do not require to be folded, as
at Fig. 2, we may construct these of one material, pattern and color throughout, or
the neck band A and the front portion B may be of one and the same material, while
the bow or knot portion C may be of other material, or the same material but of
another pattern or color or both, and the said portion C would have woven therein,
or embroidered, embossed or printed thereon, any suitable mark, design or pattern, in
one or any number of colors, in imitation of a dress pin or other ornament, as shewn
by D in Fig. 2, in which we have chosen to illustrate an ornament resembling a
dogs head and whip. When this kind of tie consists of a length of one kind of
material, to be folded and formed into a knot or other design by the wearer, we
may by any of the means stated provide more than one ornament D, which may be
alike or different to each other, and arranged at suitable intervals and in such
positions, that by folding the tie at different parts of its length a change of
ornament may be obtained at will.
Referring to the set bow shewn by Fig. 3, the parts therein A B C D, may be
arranged, and diversified in like manner to that described in reference to the set
tie Fig. 2.
The flat chest scarf, tie or eureka Fig. 1 may be of the same material, pattern
and color throughout, or of the same material with the chin portion C, of a
different color or pattern or both to that of A and B as shewn, but in either case C,
at or near the junction of A B, would be provided with an ornament D, in or about
the position shewn, and by either of the means hereinbefore mentioned.
We wish it understood that our invention does not refer to any novelty in the
shape or contour of such ties, scarfs or bows, and that we may employ the
ornament D upon any shape or design of tie scarf or the like other than that
described and shewn, in which case we may find it more realistic to arrange that
the ornament D be upon some part other than C or its equivalent, or such part of
the tie or the like as would in the ordinary way be occupied by a pin.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is.
In the manufacture of dress ties, scarfs, eurekas, bows and the like, the combination
of one or more materials or fabrics, or the same material or fabric in one or more
colors, designs or patterns, in or upon any suitable part of which is interwoven,
embroidered, embossed or printed, in one or any number of colors, any design or
pattern in imitation of a dress pin or other ornament, substantially as and for the
purposes herein described, and shewn by the accompanying drawings.
