. The bit has a medium port which is hinged, its joints still move freely.

One cheek is stamped "Forged" and "Cross & Co" - this may refer to Mark W. Cross & Co, 19th Century importers and suppliers of saddlery & harness based in Boston, MA.
The other cheek is stamped "WB & Co", probably the manufacturers.
