IMPROVEMENT IN FASTNINGS FOR COIIlIIZlARS.y

` cation, in which-"- Figure -1 `is a perspectivefview. Figure 2, `a front `view.

The object of thisi vention is to provide for public use a simple, cheap, and convenient fastening, for collars,` which can be readily and easily applied to any collar, and which will hold 'the same securely fastened.

To accomplish this object,I` construct a thinvmetallic plate, A, provided at one endwithl one or more pointed projections a a, and near the other, with an eccentric or pear-shaped slQt,-o, adapted to receive the stud at `the large end of the opening, and to `hold it securely at the smaller end of the same. To each end of the collar, I attach one ofl these,^in` the manner shown in I The Schedule `referred to in these Letters Patent and making of the same.

fig. 1, that is to say, by bending the pointed projections a a into the shape of hooks,- andv hooking them into the collar, as there represented, r by first passing f said points through the material of the collar, and then bending them downagainst its rear side, so that they will not draw out. y

The method of fastening these plates to the shirtstud or button will be readily understood without fur- Y ther description. Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

' As an'article of manufacture, the fastening for collars above described,foonsisting essentially of the plate A, provided with the' pointed projections@ a, and the irregular opening o, adapted to receive and hold the stud in the manner described and shown. v
