US Patent No. 1,107,335, granted 18 August 1914 to August Matitsch of Nottingham, England, for an improvement to pillow lace making machines built on the Matitsch system. It describes using substitute pickers and substitute lifting bars so that wide lace can be made from a small number of lifting bars. Lace of multiple width replaces the adjoining border and selvage of narrow strips with a connecting pattern. The document has four sheets of drawings, including diagrammatic grid plans of picker and lifting-bar arrangements, followed by the specification and three claims.
