Description: |
Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. This is one of the recovered patents.
For a Cartouch Box; Robert Dingee, city of New York, August 15.
"The flap of this cartouch box is to be fastened to the body by means of a long metallic hinge, instead of depending upon the leather covering alone, which, by exposure to the weather, is said to become very hard, difficult to open, and easily broken."
Description from the Journal of the Franklin Institute, V17, Jan 1836, pg. 195 |
