This U.S. configuration is shown in Barnhardt Bros & Spindler, Book of Type Specimens No.9 (1907) and the Hamilton Manufacturing Company, Modern Cabinets, Furniture and Materials for Printers, Catalog 14 (c.1907). Hamilton state it is an improved Figure case of great value. Unlike their earlier Figure case, the improved case holds two founts of figures, and also has all the fractions in separate boxes. The empty case is Byerly Figure.
