Had wondered why they weren't covered by Samuel Oakman's Feb 12 1884 Beehive patent, but just a word makes it not apply. Though the general shape is covered by "parabolic", he specified "equatorial" wire groove. Quite certain both 104, and 143 shapes predate his patent*, he saw a niche between the upper 104s and the lower 143s grooves. *( ok, not certain on 104s but pretty sure, assume 143s because of 743.1-2-3s) Anyways, the display is for the playoffs. Get it?- New England on top. ;)
