Gem

[edit]

"Many believe that it was inspired by the "gem" paperclip, which can be traced back to about sixty years prior in the British company, Gem."

From a 2012 version of the article. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 18:23, 4 June 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Mining

[edit]

The term is used in The Colliery Guardian and Journal of the Coal and Iron Trades, Volume 146, 3 February 1933, page 196: For over-rope haulage there are three different types of clips : — (1) The fork or jigger. (2) The bulldog clip. (3) The lashing chain. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 19:02, 4 June 2015 (UTC).[reply]

1918

[edit]

Would be good to have an image of the Bulldog 1918 clip, which is amazing engineering. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 11:24, 13 June 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Should be an byword setting out the difference between “bulldog clips” and “binder clips”

[edit]

Reckon most folk aware of the two sundry shapes but not the names for each and other differences. 2A00:23C7:2B13:9001:5DEB:28C5:B9B0:2056 (talk) 21:18, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
