  • Patent number: 4687227
    Abstract: Clips for temporarily holding a memo or note on a surface. The clip comprises an elongated strip of semi-rigid resilient sheet material having a lip along one longitudinal edge and a longitudinal strip of adhesive parallel to and spaced from the lip. In the preferred form of the clip, the lip is upturned and the adhesive is applied to the opposite surface of the strip. The clips may be formed from plastic or paperboard sheet material. Where the clips are provided separately from the surface to which they are to be attached, a pressure-sensitive adhesive is preferably used, along with a peelable cover strip. The clips may be one- or two-sided. They may be provided in combination with file folders or file dividers. In some forms they may be formed integrally with the file folder or divider. In a preferred form, the clips are provided with a tension crease for enhanced holding power.
