A short 1876 patent-style notice describing a supporter worn by cotton-pickers, invented by W. J. Lynch of Old Town, Arkansas. It consists of two wooden staffs with pivoted foot-rests and sliding connections, used with a waist-belt and shoulder-straps to hold the picker in a stooping position. Two figures show the device being worn and the apparatus alone.
