The pre-WWI pads were the Silvers, D-W, Funkes, Huntley Shock Absorber (Omaha) and “Perkins” Recoil Pads (both advertised starting in 1915), Tryon #6, and the American Silver pad (sometimes called Grieb; possibly by the Ajax-Grieb Rubber Co.)
The NOSHOC pads have a June 6, 1922 patent date but were not found in catalogs until the early 1930s.
