Description
Description on the back of photograph reads: "Unitized drill pipe slips. The handles on the right and left are so placed that two rotary helpers may easily place these slips around the drill pipe so that the weight of the pipe will hang from the rotary table, in much the same manner that you suspend a baseball bat in your hand." Image appears to be identical to 33842 OS.
