Here is another photo of a bail ornament which reminded me that there was a flat steel plate on top (or bottom as installed) of the stack of springs.

This particular ornament was listed as 1936 to 1940 but, of course, each year was different and the earlier ones were quite short and did not use the springs. This one appears to be 1940 which was the longest of that style.

These two photos from two different ornaments show the springs in either orientation and I don't recall which is correct as it was 50 years ago that I last worked on one! I believe the top one is correct but I'm not sure although the bottom photo shows the springs and plate very clearly.
