Description: |
The inventor manufactured artists' canvases. "The special object of this invention is to provide an organized machine to rapidly and perfect form the joints at the corners of 'stretcher'-frames—that is, those frames used for the canvases of oil-paintings..." The USPTO has in its collection a framed oil painting that was submitted as part of the application for this patent; the oil painting's frame was presumably made on the machine that is the subject of the patent. See patents 206,885 and 206,886 for further improvements to the canvases themselves. |
