      Hard enough to find a Gillman wire as is, but these variations are something else.

      You are so right Al. I've only seen one Gillman in a collection. Personally I don't think these are Gillman. They appear to be a complete reverse of the Scott Smallwood patent #254,888. ie; Sheet metal line wire with wire barbs. Could have been one of the wires made by the company in St Louis that changed up patents slightly to avoid patent infringement.
