I don't think there was any need to mention the shift pattern, it's the same as all American cars with 3-speeds on the column. If there's an exception to that, I'm don't recall it. It's also the same, except for the plane of orientation, as almost all cars that have a 3-speed floor shift. That standard pattern was pretty much universal for 3-speed transmissions.

PS - here's a photo of the soon-to-become standard "H" pattern gearshift, this on a 1901 Packard.
