Excerpt from The Law of Patents for Designs: With Particular Reference to the Practice Which Obtains in the Prosecution of Applications for Design Patents in the United States Patent Office as Shown by the Rules and Decisions

Whether the specification Should contain a description of the design, and whether a patent may be issued for a surface ornamentation are among the questions which have received considerable attention and not altogether satisfactory answers.
