The principal object of the invention is to provide a container that is equipped with fastening means, in the form of shoe laces, whereby a child, in order to close or obtain acc:ss to the container, will necessarily have t6 resort to a lacing and unlacing action of the toy shoe. Thus, the child, by repeated efforts in opening and closing the container, will be taught the act upon inspection of Figure 1. By virtue of this of lacing a shoe, which act, as a rule, is most diflicult, tedious and annoying to a small child.
A further object of the invention is to provide a container of the character described that is attractive in appearance, economical to manufacture, and unique in the closure meansprovi ed.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts. throughout the same,
Fig, 1 is a perspective view of a toy container simulating a shoe and constructed in accordance with our invention, the toy, in this instance, being provided with wheels; and
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the container in opened position with the wheels removed,
In the accompanying drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration, is shown a preferred embodiment of our invention, the numeral 3 designates a wheeled base which carries a body providing a container and is shaped to simulate a shoe; The body is open throughout one entire side thereof to provide goes to its interior, and a side wall 4 hinged as at 5 to the bottom wall of the body, as shown in Figure 2, closes the open side. The body which is broadly indicated by the reference numeral 6 includes a top wall I and a fixed side wall that extends forwardly beyond the upper portion of the front wall, as best shown in Figure 2, to provide an extension 8 having a row of spaced openings 9 therein registering with a row of spaced openings ill formed in the side wall I which likewise extends beyond the upper portion of the front wall, for the disposal of the extending portion thereof in parallelism with the extension 8, as will be obvious construction there is provided a recess l l so that sufilcient space is ,afl'orded for the fingers of the child in the lacing and unlacing operation. The
lace, in the present instance, is indicated by the numeral l2, and may be of conventional form,
\ for registration and or a fancy ornamental ribbon operation has been accomplished, as is conventionally done, the shoe will have the appearance of the article as disclosed in Fig. 1.
It is to be understood that the form of our invention' herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same and that various changes relative to the material, size, shape and arrangement of parts may be restored to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims, f
Having thus described our invention, we claim:
a 1. A toy for instruction'in shoelacing, comprising a body providing a container and shaped to simulate a shoe, said body being open throughout one entire side thereof, top,.front and bottom walls included in-said body, a tongue simulating portion included in the front wall, a side wall hinged to the bottom wall for closing the open side of the body and extending a substantial dis-e tance forwardly beyond the tongue simulating portion, a fixed side wall likewise extending a substantial distance forwardly beyond the tongue simulating portion, the forwardly extending portions of both side walls being in parallelism with each other and cooperating with the front wall to provide a deep recess throughout the upper portion of the front of the body, said forwardly extending portions each having a row of openings therein disposed for registration and adapted to have a lace threaded therethrough in bridging relation to the recess, and said lace actingto hold the hinged side wall in closed position.
2. A toy for instruction in shoe lacing, comprising a wheeled base, a body providing a container and mounted on said base to be carried thereby, said body shaped to simulate 'ashoe and including front and side walls, one of said side walls being hinged to provide access to the interior of the body, a tongue simulating portion included in the front wall, said side walls extending forwardly beyond the tongue simulating portion in parallelism with each other and cooperating with the front wall to provide a deep recess throughout the upper portion of the front of the body, the
forwardly extending portions of the side walls each having a row of openings therein disposed adapted to. have a lace threaded therethrough in bridging relation to the recess, and said lace acting to hold the hinged WILLIAM C. YANCEY.
