I think he worked for Gar Wood...he looks old enough!

Check out this 1910 "Stepped Hull".

The Russians claim the idea of steps was theirs first. They also claim that Capitalists have bastardized the spelling for over a century, insisting that the correct spelling is Stepps (or Zd3bbz in cyrillic).
