Description
. Specification of Letters latent.
Patented June 1, new.
Application filed October 15, 1914. Serial No. 888,872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARJORIE T. Gimme, a
' citizen of the United States, and resident of which is peculiarly adapted for use as an equestrian doll.
Referring to the drawings which illustrate an embodiment of my invention,Figure 1 is a front view of a frame or skeleton of a doll; Fig. 2 is a front view, Fig. 3 is a side view, and Fig. 4 isa front view of the doll body in successivestages of its construction; and Fig. 5 is a front view of the completed doll body.
The frame or skeleton is of wire or similar material and comprises a body portion A, neck portion A, arms A A and legs A A. Suitable means such as the loops a are provided for securing to the frame an appropriate head, hands and feet.
In making the doll, strips B of suitable material such for example as strips of cotton cloth, called herein arm strips, are
- wound about the arms and body in the manner shown in Fig. 2. As'shown in said figure a strip B is wound. around the arm A of the frame beginning at a point just above the loop a on said arm and extending up to the shoulder of the frame, then down around the body portion A, the free end of said strip B extending along the leg A. A simi lar strip B is then wound around the arm A of the frame to the shoulder, then around the body portion A, the free end of the strip extending along the leg A.
Strips G similar to the strips B and called herein body and leg strips, are then folded over the frame in the manner shown in Figs. 3 and 4. As shown in said figures, a strip C of suficient length to reach from a shoulder to the foot of the opposite leg both front and back, is laid or folded over a shoulder of the frame, as for instance, the right shoulder, across the body portion A and down along the left leg. Another strip 0 is then laid or folded over the left shoulder across the bodyportion A and down along the right leg and so on alternately 'until the body is of the desired thickness. The strips G are then firmly secured in any suitable mannor as by a strip of fabric or tape D wound around'them and fastened, as clearly shown in Fig. 5. It will be understood that when the body of the doll has been completed in the form shown in Fig. 5 a suitable head, hands and feet are secured to the loops (1 or their equivalents, and the body is provided with appropriate clothing.
4 It will, I believe, be clear that a doll or other toy made according to my invention as above described is very durable and well calculated to withstand the rough handling to which such articles are subjected. The legs and arms can not be readily torn off as in the case of sewed and rubber dolls and the body is not stuffed according to the common practice of making toys of this character. It will be equally clear that the toy may be very cheaply made; its material being inexpensive and the method of making so simple that it can readily be carried out by comparatively inexperienced persons. Furthermore, by reason of the crossing of the leg and body strips C, as above described, the legs when stretched apart tend to return to normal position so that without bending the wire frame of the legs and so injuring the toy, a doll of this construction sits firmly astride a toy horse or the like.
While I have herein shown and described my invention as embodied in a doll, it will be understood that the invention is applicable to the making of other articles such as toy animals of all sorts. Therefore, the words arms and legs as herein used are to be understood merely in a descriptive sense and in no wise a limitation of the invention.
I claim:
1'. A toy of the character described comprising a skeleton or frame havin a body part, arms, and legs, a strip of fabric wound upon one of said arms beginning at its end and extending to the shoulder, thence around the body part and extending along one of said legs, and another strip of fabric wound upon the other of said arms beginning at its end and extending to the shoulder, thence around the body part and extending along the other of said legs, and means to bind 7 said strips about said legs.
2. A toy of the character described comprising a skeleton or frame having. a body part, arms and legs, a strip of fabric folded over one shoulder of said frame and extendprising a skeleton or frame having ing along the le opposite said shoulder, an--- 0t other shoulder of said frame and extending along the leg opposite said shoulder, said two ast named strips crossing one another, and means to bind said two last named strips 4 about said legs and said body part.
4. A toy o the character described comprising a skeleton or frame having a body part, arms and legs, a strip of fabric wound upon one of said arms beginning at its end and extending to the shoulder, thence around the body part and extending along one of said legs, another strip, of fabric wound upon theother of said arms beginning at its end and extending to theshoulder, thence around said body part and extending along the other of said legs, another strip of fab? ric folded over one shoulder of said frame and extending along the leg opposite said shoulder, another strip of fabric folded over the other shoulder of said frame and extending alon the leg'opposite said shoulder,
' sald twodast named stripscrossing one another, and means to bind said two last named strips about said legs and said body part.
Signed by me at Boston, Massachusetts, this 13th day of October, 1914.
