Hello Richard,
 
   You have a Wood-Brooks  90% action.
This action was actually  invented by the Thayer 
Action Co.  just  before they  merged with
Wood.-Brooks.
 
  In the late 1940s it was introduced as a
"GRAND ACTION"  in a vertical.  I was young 
and believed the  " Factory Experts "
 
   Checking was a problem in some cases we 
put leather on the hammer tails, this worked very 
well.
 
  To help this action it needs to be well lubricated 
and add a little key depth.
 
   You will find a working model in the   Foundation
Museum.
 
Regards
Jack Wyatt
