Gould & Eberhardt 14" Shaper

I'm looking for photos of the feed pawl on this 14" shaper. There is a "newer" enclosed ratchet design that has photos everywhere, but I can't find a single photo of this machine online.

I understand the missing piece of the mechanism, and I can make a part that will work, but I would sure love to know what the original looked like on this machine so I can aim for a close copy. I don't always push for historical accuracy in old machinery, but it is definitely nicer when a repair at least looks like a representation of the original.

The newest patent date on any of the parts of this machine is 1895. The only catalog photos I could find were from the twenties or thirties and the feed mechanism had changed design already. Anyone know when the design changed?

I never have luck posting photos with my phone on practical machinist, so i will post this text and try to comment with the photos. Worst case I will get on a computer later and upload them.

Thanks ladies and gents.

Let me know if you need help, works real good for me except it will only allow one photo per post sometimes.
