Description:

The manufacturer information is somewhat speculative: the patent was not explicitly assigned to Henry & Wright but an early patent to this inventor, 773,591, is known to have been used by that firm. Rice seems to have been a professional inventor as his numerous patents span machine tools, streetcars, trains, typewriters, and tire repair. Most of his patents were not explicitly assigned.
