As discussed in the I Love Bugs Zoom. The patent is
USP1,445,226
Filed Dec. i0, 1921 Issued Feb. 13, 1923.
This shows the bent over ears forming the hinge. Gives at least some
clue as to when the change in production was made. The older type hinge
is shown in patent
USP 842,154 Issued JAN. 22 1907 Filed April 16, 1906
I think this is the oldest patent for the "Original" pattern.
J.H.Bunnell had a large number of patents for various telegraph items
including automatic keys, the original Steel Lever key, various
sounders, etc., etc.
