    No. 39633.
    Protest 834390-G of Kallman & Morris, Inc. (New York).
   Opinion by

Keefe, J.

It was found that the cord and seal fastened to the gown in question had been severed and replaced and the examining official refused to sign the certificate of identity. It was established that the model who exhibited the gown to customers severed the cord inadvertently and personally sewed the cord with the seal back on the garment. The protest was sustained. Abstract 40084, Stiebel v. United States (T. D. 48394), and Bonwit Teller v. United States (T. D. 49322) cited.
