This itemconsists of one, super-industrial clip that you wouldn't want to put your finger into. It wouldn't surprise me if it could hold fifty pounds. Each side measures 2.75 x 3.5". At rest the lever end is open to 1" and the jaws open to 3/4". These were probably given as advertising premiums to building contractors who did business with the company. The company is mentioned in a 1917 issue of a cons...truction and building journal as having been taken-over by another cement company, Alpha Portland Cement Co. That dates this clip before 1917. Its calendar sections are not complete. There should be one more card showing four different placements of the first of the month. The best I can do is scan it from the other set I have.All of my items come unconditionally guaranteed. This means I won't settle for anything less than your satisfaction.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE BIDDING OR BUYING: I have been collecting paper since 1953. My grading of a magazine or a book is no less accurate than a commercial grading service. Likewise, if a book is signed by an author, I am perfectly capable of comparing that signature to known examples. Trust me.I do offer combined shipping for multiple purchases. Wait for me to send you a revised invoice before you check out, or I'll refund any over-payment. Also note that eBay's postage calculator is not always accurate. In the event that I can mail your item for less than you've paid, you will receive a refund for the difference.EXPERT, WORRY-FREE PACKAGING!If you send me an email and I don't reply, don't take it personal. I ignore no one, but stuff happens. Thanks for looking! Good browsing! Dick. ACCURATE, HONEST descriptions + GOOD pictures + HAPPY customers = BUY with confidence.
