OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

NECKTIE BOX.

Application led. June 11,

To @ZZ whom t may concern.:

lie it known that l, limoen Coi-IN, a citizen o'i the United States oi America, residing at N ew York city, horoup'h of lllanhats tan, county and State ot' New York, have invented certain new and useful llmprovements in llleciztie Bones, oli which the following is a specilication.

This invention relates to necktie boxes and in particular' to the type used lor the purpose or holding a single neektie Ylor display purposes.

lffhile l am aware that other necktieboxes have l'ieen made 'for displa purposes, l have i; tonnd that they will not securely hold the neclitie in position when the box is stood up vertically on one end for the purpose oi showing' the necktie hetter.

it is a particular objeot therefore of my e invention to 'ovide a neektie holder which may be trietmially held in a hoX and which is provided with a cat ont through which the tie may he passed, a portion of the out out being' so shaped that it will engage the 3 tie and prevent its movement longitudinally et the hof; when the latter is stood on end Afor display purposes.

,ll-mother ohjeet of the invention is to provide 'for a hex, a holder in which the tie is ira p need. the holder heine' raised from the bottoni ot' the bof; in that portion which retains the tie. so that the latter may be placed in the. hoi; with a minimum ol labor and time.

A 'farther object is to provide a holder i which is slightly wider than the boli at its ends so that the same may be treed into the hoi; and held therein securely.

lieiieiriiig' to the drawing wherein l have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention:

Figure l is a view in perspective ot necktie bof;7 holder and necktie in position in the latter, the bon heling partly broken to -.show the supporting means 'for the holder, lligare Q is a longitudinal section taken on the line 2 2 of Figure l,

Figure 3, is a cross-section taken through the box and holder on the line 3 3 o'l Figure l, and

Figure e, is-a top plan view of the blank 'torni' ig the necktie holder.

eilierrine' to the drawing in detail indn Ltes the'usual tie holding boi; which is i" v"ted olZ cardboard or the like. and 6 a holder into which the neektie is 19241:. Serial No. 719.235.

.inserted to be held in display position. It is necessary to provide a holder which will prevent the tie from sliding down when the hon stood on end for display and in order to accomplish this, provide cut outs 'i' which form a retaining' bridge 8 in the holder, the upper side ofithis bridge 8 being cut ovally so that it YForms a lip 9 which will engage the tie l0, when the saine is in position, to prevent its displacement. The holder (l is made from a piece of cardboard. which is cut so that it lits snugly into the box 5, the ends of said holder being slightly wider than the inside width olf the hox so that the holder ends are forced into the latter and held therein ln order that the tie may be quickly inserted into the holder, which is very 'desirable in honing' ties in large quantities individually for the holiday trade, I raise the center portion li et the holder' oli' the bottoni oit the box through the medium or' two side pieces l2, which are bent downwardly to eng .ge the bottom and sides of the box when the holder is inserted. ln that portion il or the holder where the side pieces l2 are situated, the saine is made wider than the rest olt the holder so that when the latter is inserted it will cause a slight bulge in the retaining' bridge 8, so that the tie can be quickly passed thereunder' and be held securely in position. The side pieces of course, keep the center o't the holder in raised position so that the tie can he easily inserted under the hridge S.

lt will be noted that my improved tie holder can le stamped out of a piece of heavy paper or cardboard or the like after which the side pieces l2 are simply bent down and the holder 8 is inserted into the bosv ready to receive a neoktie.

rllhe necktie is inserted easily and quickly and `when in place, the box may be stood on end to display the tie without danger of the latter 'falling' out oli the holder as is the case where the tie is held in position by a ribbon or other hand which takes goed deal of time to apply.

Having described my invention, what 'I claim is l.. l-r display boi; having therein an article holder the en( s and inidportion olE which are adapted to he trietionally held therein, depending ineens adiaeent the midportion oi the holder tor keeping the center portion or the holder in spaced relation with the bottom of the box, and a neektie retainingbridge formed in said center portion.

2. A display boX having therein an article holder adapted to be held in position in Said box, side pieces on the holder adapted to engage the sides of the boxto raise the center portion of the holder ol' the bottoni of the box, said side pieces in their Contact With the sides of the box acting to bulge the center of the holder, and a neelitie retaining ineinber formed in the holder in the bulged portion thereof.

3. A display box having therein a frietionally retained holder, means adj aeent the inidportion of said holder for keeping the center portion of 'the holder in spaced relation with the bottoni off' the box, said holder being provided with out outs, the material between which acts as a retaining bridge lor a neektie when the saine is passed through said ontouts, said spacing inea-ns acting to bulge Said retaining bridge, and a lip liornied on said retaining bridge 'for engaging the tievwhereby the saine will be prevented from having movement longitudinally of the` box...
