The older one, which is the one I use, has one piece of anti-newton glass on top and just a metal frame (which I had to file out to make it cover the entire negative) on the bottom. The newer carrier is as you describe, with an extra piece of dust-catching glass on the bottom. I still prefer the setup I have with the Dursts - anti-newton glass on the top and an oversized metal frame on the bottom.
