Meanings
- not comparableNot having been nipped.
Tickets are supposed to be nipped when passengers enter a platform, and if this could always be done the fraud could hardly take place; but the suburban rush is so great that the nipping of all tickets is impossible and a large number of unnipped tickets are always collected at destination.
1953 November, 'Erca', “Ticket frauds in the East”, in Railway Magazine, page 779
