Vantine v. United States
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Southern New York · Decided March 16, 1909 · Facombe
168 F. 562; 1909 U.S. App. LEXIS 5404
Vantine v. United States

Opinion of the Court

FACOMBE, Circuit Judge.

The articles imported are hand-painted panels, to be hung on a wall or other appropriate place. To each one there is affixed a small calendar, manifestly a trifling part of the entire article. They seem to be within the principle laid down in Tiffany v. United States (C. C.) 66 Fed. 736, and should be classified under Tariff Act July 24, 1897, c. 11, § 1, Schedule N, par. 454, 30 Stat. 194 (U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 1678).

Decision reversed.
