Description

Like the 1919-1921 jack, except that the ratio of height to length is 2:3. In use from 1921 to 1933, when the canton was removed.

Norman Martin, 1998

The regulation of 11 April 1921, finally in force 1 January 1922, described a new jack. However, this was basically the model 1919 jack, only the proportion was changed to 2:3. Sources:
