I have checked the years until 1922 and all the years the pictures in the adverts show the printed ribbon style. There is not a single ad showing Jenneke's version, probably because it has not been necessry to make no pictures because of this minor change. So I would say that this version would most likely have been used in the second half of the period, 1920-1922...

Cary, yours seems to be of the first production lot, would it be possible to check the serial number(s) for a dating? Or can you remember since when you have the box? If it were since 1918, this would also be a proof Very Happy
