Sixties Hurst Shifter?

This is the typical reverse shifter lever for the 1968 A-Body and I think other years and models.
My question is, was there a shifter used in ´68 or earlier, (any model) that had a different (straight) reverse lever?
Possibly also the type levers that use bushings? (second pick)
So the shape of the reverse shifter lever is the question here...
Thank you for taking the time.
