The ones in the links seem to be silver..

And the ones in Jeff of Pa seems to be brass or copper
like mine..Maybe ours are 19th century and the silver 20th century

My Mom & Dad are both Cornell grads - I just sent the pics over to them to see if they have any input.

Will let you know if I get any info.

Yes they are different. Thats all I found.

We may be able to approximate the date by the hinge but I cant quite see it. The tube hinge or T-bar is the earliest.
