Description: |
| Wooden side pieces with a central metal frame and latch. This would hang down from the nostrils far enough to prevent sucking as the animal's head was raised, but swing forward to allow grazing and drinking. Period ads show three sizes produced, and several sources name Rice as the manufacturer. |
