In 1934, [[Aaron Goldstein]] and [[Hiram S. Yellen]] invented and mass marketed the [[Gomco]] clamp which makes it easier for doctors to cut off even more skin than in traditional [[circumcision]]s. Yellen invented it on the basis of his experience of using a Ford motor tyre lever.<ref name="geni">{{REFweb
