Disclose Notes: Art looks imatative of the other It's Patented sequences but not the same. My uneducated guess is that this unsigned sequence (the others were all signed) is by a different artist. This sequence is the only one to include "United States Patents Have Been Granted On The Following Devices..." in bold print.
