dude were you smoking anything funny that day? It seems like a awfull amount to pay. Is this what those are really worth? I've never seen anything like that.

I know an old "Single Stamped" gripper from IronMind can go for a few ($150 or higher). If I had the money I would have gone for it myself.

Auction format is generally the best method for determining market value of an item. I'll upload a close attempt later today along with some pictures. This is the Babe Ruth (which I also collect) of strongman grippers. Here're a few of my Ruths.

Thanks!

Got to looking at my pictures and scans when I mentioned Ruth, and figuring there has to be some baseball fans out there; some Cardinals or Angels fans; former or current players, etc, I wanted to show my 2004 Albert Pujols game used bat. Haven't looked at it in a while; poor bat :cry.

Anyway, gripper vid coming later today. Hope I can close it.

Babe Ruth candy.

His candy helped him.

How 'bout the back of this one?

I just saw this line of posts. I have an Ironmind gripper ( Tetting) that I bought in the '70's. Smooth steel handles.I think it was a 3 in their rating system(and "No,I was never able to close it".) Took it to C O C#1 and he warned me that it might be dangerous to close(or try) as he had one old one break and a piece of the spring hit him in the face.

I've seen his stuff but don't know who it is.

The following includes an image from the advertisement page (taking my own photos today) followed by a video attempt (Hear that, Hear it?):

I thought that was made by the R B guy in Australia. I don't remember why I think that. Memory is bad sometimes.

we actually don't call them shrimp - we call them prawns. that whole Paul Hogan thing is a real joke! no Aussie has ever said 'throw another shrimp on the barbie'.

I was thinking of Jim Carry in dumb & dumber not Paul Hogan.

Yes, Matt I know he is from Penn. A while ago I typed Swiss troll instead of the Swedish troll (or something like that) and I was corrected by Brent The Geography Hitler.
