On this day in 1904, James Scott was granted the patent for NECK MUFFLER. U.S. Patent No. 774,703.
This invention relates to mufflers for protecting the neck, chest, or back or the ears and face, and has for its object to improve the construction and increase the efficiency and scope and produce a device of this character which may be quickly put on or taken off and adjusted to protect the neck and throat and chest or back only, or extended to protect the ears and face also, as required, and which will also adapt itself to the neck and shoulders and effectually prevent the entrance of cold drafts or moisture.
