In a seemingly off-the-cuff remark last week, Daniel-binkythedoormat-Gray mentioned that "You can never have enough bulldog clips..." Damn right I thought. I've got 83, so far. Although strictly speaking mine are actually Boston Clips, the Bulldog being it's slightly duller father.

So what's the difference between the Boston and the Bulldog?

You counted them?

I'm not an expert but the Wiki entry on the subject shows a black and steel clip that looks quite austere and British (Bulldog), while my clips are all stainless steel and shiny (Boston). Just what you'd expects from 50s America.
