| Description: |  | The device creates a flange on the edge of sheet metal, including forming a "recess" to hold wire for a wire reinforced edge. 
The specifications note earlier devices -- A.W. Whitney's 1847 patent and Charles H. Raymond's August 30, 1859 patent (25,278) -- and detail the differences. 
The patent date appears on the frame of Peck, Stow & Wilcox tools corresponding to this design. |  |
