Oswald Tippo (born in 1911), formerly of the University of Illinois and now of the New York University of U.S.A. published an outline of a projected classification in 1942. He claims no originality for his system. Tippo’s system is a compilation of systems proposed by G. Smith (1938) for non-vascular plants and by A.J. Eames (1936) for vascular plants.
 

Synopsis of Tippo’s System (1942):

Phylum 1. Bryophyta or Atracheata. Plants without vascular tissues. 

Phylum 2. Tracheophyta or Tracheata. Plants with vascular tissues. 

Sub-phylum 1. Psilopsida. Root-less and leafless vascular plants.
