    Not believing what I was reading, I looked it up, and did find the 1913 Patent book for the device. Weird.....

    The patent drawing I have would make your eyes pop out. this one isn't online. The letters from 1916 until 1921 tell a story on their own. This certificate went from the Dime Building to the Free Press Building and stayed in the Book building for almost 40years and made its way to the Guardian and Penobscott Buildings

    The very next patent is for a lubricator.

    Tsk, tsk. What will those randy Victorians think of next?
