1880's Hinged Walking Parasol - a photo on Flickriver

1880's Hinged Walking Parasol

A parasol, with a canopy of white cotton, that is decorated with fringe at the hem and two ruffles where the spike protrudes. The stick and thick handle are wood, the former plain and the latter faceted and flared at the end. The parsol has a stretcher, runner, and ribs of steel. The parasol also has a top notch, spring mechanism to operate, and long spike.
The unique item about this parasol is the joint in the handle. To operate the joint you must unscrew the handle, from which unfolds an elongated marquise joint, that reads "F.O. & Co. / MAKERS."
Condition: Good, but stained. H 40". DIA 33". Spike OH 5"
Found in collection, ACC# 92.15
