This thread might be of interest - primarily recoil devices rather than pads

The 1916 Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Co. catalog listed the Jostam "Anti-Flinch" and 2 I have not heard of nor find with an internet search; Philadelphia Ventilated and Y.C. - Young & Cadwallader.
H.W. Cadwallader was a well known trap shooter from Danville and later Decatur, Ill who was active from the late 1890s to after WWI. He was a Peters Rep and competed as a Professional at the 1915 Chicago GAH

After a bit of searching, it is likely that the Young of the Y.C. pad was Jesse S. Young of Chicago. He had the High Amateur Singles Average of .9509 and tied 2nd Doubles High Average at .8500 in 1909

That Pennsylvania Ventilated looks a lot like the pad shown on the Baker SBT back on page 1.

Have not been able to find any other catalog listings for the Pennsylvania Ventilated pad, but Pennsylvania Rubber Co., maker of Penn tennis balls would be a good candidate.

Curved Jostam B&W pad from James on the 1st page.
I do not know when they were offered, nor if they carry a patent date

Babcock & Wilcox Co. was primarily a boiler manufacturer, went by B&W and in the 1940s produced synthetic rubber
