A change of coverSourced
Her umbrella could put on a different color
Among Beulah Louise Henry’s inventions was an umbrella with interchangeable, differently colored snap-on cloth covers, recorded in 1924. Its appearance could change without replacing the frame. The idea gave an ordinary accessory a changeable outer layer.
The umbrella could change its cover while keeping its bones.
