This case is shown in American Type Founders, American Line Type Book, 1906. The top row of accented letters, eg Å, should all have short accents not rings and the next row beneath, eg Ã, should all have long accents and not tildes. The rows with A E etc are small caps. The empty case is Dearing Accent. ATF 1896, BB&S 1903, BB&S 1907, and Hamilton 1907, 1922 show the same Accent lay, apart from the bottom row grouping all the N together, etc. The Boston version of ATF 1906 also does the same.
