Abstract: |
A pocket combination for holding a packet of dispensable paper tissue and for incorporation in a leather ski-glove or other like article of clothing, including a packet-receiving opening in the outer layer of the article, the edges of the opening holding the sides of the packet and an inner layer of material for supporting the bottom, major surface of the packet. There is a first, generally rectangular and flexible packet-retaining flap having a tissue-passing aperture therein and pivotally secured along one of its sides to the article outer layer, adjacent the packet-receiving opening. The periphery of the inner major surface of this first flap is equipped with a Velcro strip and the packet-receiving opening is bordered with a complementary Velcro strip. Thus the first flap is foldable to a closed position in which its Velcro strip engages the complementary Velcro strip, and inner surface portions of the flap engage the top of the packet to hold it against outward movement. The aperture allows tissues to be dispensed from the secured packet. A second, generally rectangular over-flap is also Velcro equipped and has one end secured to the article outer layer, and is foldable entirely over the closed first flap and is releasably held in that position by engagement with a complementary Velcro strip on the article outer layer.

1. In combination with an article of clothing, a construction for holding a generally flat and rectangular packet of dispensible tissue paper, including:
- (a) Packet-receiving means in the outer layer of said garment comprising a cavity bounded by the edges of an opening in said outer lawyer and an inner layer of material, the edges of said opening adapted to engage the sides of said packet and hold it against lateral movement and said inner layer adapted to support the bottom of said packet against inward movement;
- (b) a first, flexible, generally rectangular, packetretaining flap, having one end affixed to said outer layer so as to pivotally mount said first flap adjacent said cavity, and the periphery of the inner surface of said first flap having a strip of Velcro material affixed thereto, and a first complementary strip of Velcro material affixed to said outer layer and bordering said cavity, whereby said first flap is foldable to a closed position in which said first flap Velcro strip releasably engages said first complementary Velcro strip, and said first flap having a tissue-passing aperture therein and an inner surface bordering said aperture which will engage the outer surface of said packet when said first flap is closed so as to retain said packet against outward movement;
- (c) generally rectangular, flexible over-flap, pivotally affixed at one of its ends to said outer layer and having a strip of Velcro material affixed along the periphery of its inner surface, and a second complementary strip of Velcro material affixed to said outer layer, whereby said over-flap is foldable to a closed position in which said over-flap Velcro strip releasably engages said second complementary Velcro strip to as to completely cover said first flap.
