In general, measurements are taken from examples in the editor's collection, except as noted. . If you can supply data for missing models, please help me out. Thank you.
Rufus Bliss made only Inchers.
Bliss and Co made Inchers, and used No X to distinguish models.
Bliss Mfg Co used No X, and 8xx to distinguish models.
ONeil used only 8xx to distinguish models.
The dimensions apparently remained unchanged as the company re-organized several times. The change over from Inchers to Numbers to 8xx can not be well determined.
