plantmover.... hi....looks to me like you have a 'Wabash' Iris 1936. I have a few of them also, and you are right, it is an old Iris, considered an heirloom.

The variety 'Bright Hour' Iris is often passed around for 'Wabash', but the true Wabash has purple based foliage. Bright Hour does not.

In the photo below is my 'Wabash' right up front....I've had them for years.

Hope this helps you out a little.
