We, ANNIE BROWN, of Clumber Crescent, The Park, Nottingham, Gentle-
woman, and JOHN EDWARD CROSSLEY, of Sovereign Street, in the City of Leeds,
Drysalter, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to a new or improved door attachment and its object
is to provide a portable hook or carrier which can be readily attached to or sus-
pended from a door particularly for the use of travellers and other temporary
use.
For this purpose we form or provide an upward extension on the hook or its
equivalent and the upper end of this extension is bent over at right angles and
then down again so as to form a hook or clip adapted to embrace the top of the
door and be thereby suspended therefrom. The bent over portion is made
sufficiently thin so as not to prevent the door being shut.
Two or more of these extensions or clips may be employed to support a row of
hooks. Or names or notices such as engaged may be supported thereby.

Improvements in Hooks or like Attachments for Doors.
We, ANNIE BROWN, of Clumber Crescent, The Park, Nottingham, Gentle-
woman, and JOHN EDWARD CROSSLEY, Sovereign Street, in the City of Leeds,
Drysalter, 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:-
This invention relates to a new or improved door attachment and its object
is to provide a portable hook or carrier which can be readily attached to or sus-
pended from a door particularly for the use of travellers and other temporary
use.
For this purpose we form or provide an upward extension on the hook or its
equivalent and the upper end of this extension is bent over at right angles and
then down again so as to form a hook or clip adapted to embrace the top of the
door and be thereby suspended therefrom. The bent over portion is made
sufficiently thin so as not to prevent the door being shut.
To fully describe this invention reference is made to the accompanying drawing

page_text: forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate
corresponding parts in each of the figures.
Figures 1 and 2, represent a side view and a front view of our portable hook.
Figure 3, represents a front view of three of such hooks supported upon a
door.
Figure 4, is a side view of the same.
In Figures 3 and 4 the door is represented by the broken lines A. The hook B
is made with an extension B flattened out at the upper end B3 where it is bent
over to form the clip B+ adapted to engage the top of the door and be supported
thereby. The hook B and extension B2 can be ornamented in any desired manner.
Two or more hooks may be supported by one extension piece engaging the top
of the door.
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:-
The combination with a hook or hooks of an extension clip adapted to engage
the top of a door and be supported thereby, substantially as herein shown and
described.
