"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."

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).

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).

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)
