The Lem-Blay (or Lem Blay) Clamp is a bell type clamp, similar in principle to the Gomco but quite different in construction. The name comes from its developers, Dr. Robert E. Blais and Mr. George U. LeMoine, who filed a US patent in 1941, which was granted in 1942. Presumably manufacture, by the Elbe company of 165 Parker Street, Lawrence, Mass. commenced after the war, since the manufacturer's leaflet mentions that "During the War Major Blais carried the instrument with him throughout his tour of duty in Europe". Quite why is not clear since, at least in the marketed version, it is only suitable for infant circumcisions.
