Now, with the above patent you will see a section that relates the patent to other patents.

With that list you can type the patent number in the search box and go directly to that patent.

In the list you will see a Bower patent from 1904.

I believe Mike Curotto has an early Bower snare drum withe this very unique snare strainer system

Ok that's enough sorry to bore you all with this stuff!
