UNITED STATES PATENT QFFIGE.
JACOB STAMM, on NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN PROCESSES FOR MAKING STATUARY AND COMPOSITIONS THEREFOR.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 146,720, dated January 20, 1874; application filed December 6,1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JACOB STAMM, of the city of New York, N. Y., have invented a new and useful Process for Making Improved Models of Statuary, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description:
my invention.
The following are the ingredients and the proportions of the composition: Whiting, ten parts; glue, two and one-half parts; boiled potatoes, two parts; and soft paper, one and oneh'alf part. If soft paper is not obtainable, old newspapers may be substituted. When the ingredients have been well mixed they are boiled over a slow fire about one hour, which, when done, makes a composition of the consistency of putty when it becomes cold.
Enough of this composition is applied to give the required fullness and shape to the model. The next step is to reduce a portion of this composition with water, into a liquid of the consistency of oil, and to apply it to the model with a brush. Several coats of it are applied to the paste composition, which soon becomes hard and durable, assisted by the sun, or by artificial heat. A coat of shellac is then applied, and after that a coat of oil-paint. The model may then be colored or painted after any artistic design. Different parts of a figure, as the hands, head, or feet, are made of the same composition, and aflixed to the model when done.
I do not apply the composition to the burlap or buckram when it is the consistency of putty, but only when reduced to a thick liquid. I use buckram, when wet, only for drapery, because then it is easily draped to suit the fancy. After the buckram 'is arranged, the
liquid is applied four or five times to harden and fix it, each coat being allowed to dry before the next is applied. The head, feet, and hands are made ot' the putty consistency, without a wood foundation. For nude figures I use wood for the body and limbs as a foundation, because it takes the composition too long to dry when solid.
I not only propose to manufacture the composition for artists models, but also for statues to take the place of those made of iron, lead. or the wood statues now in common use, mine being more durable, more easily repaired, less expensive, and, being light and hard to break, their transportation may be quite safely efl'ected.
I claim 1. A composition for statuary, consisting of JACOB STAMM. [L.S.]
