Cloth covered cord went out around 1936-38 depending on the manufacturer. They started using mostly the brown rubber (now plastic usually) lamp cord we are most used to today, with two parallel conductors having a slit down the middle so that you can "zip" the conductors apart for wiring. Like in your "before" photo. Zip.
