Default Canvas Mudflap Design

So is this design, with the wire reinforcing, the standard manufacture?

It's very handy for me that this thread started, as I am soon wanting to get a set made for myself. Have seen two restored vehicles here in Australia that have canvas mudflaps, but they both were a simple canvas sewn through diagonally from corner to corner. Those did not have wire inside. They couldn't have because of the sewing pattern.

Is this the style I should be having for a 1942 Ford CMP?

Up until this thread, I was intending to only put a flat aluminium bar across top & bottom inside the canvas cover, as per the above photo I took at Canungra 2011.
