Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the combination of a clipboard, having a clip of plastic material secured to a board. The clip includes a U-shaped one-piece unitary member having first and second sides and a connecting portion interconnecting the two sides. A mounting wall extends laterally outwardly from the first side of the member and has first and second spaced spring retaining grooves. Wall means has rivets extending therethrough to secure the clip to the mounting surface. First and second spaced spring retaining lugs are formed on the second side of the unitary member on the inside surface thereof and a lifting member is formed on the outside surface of the second side of the unitary member to enable the user of the combination to lift the clip to either place paper underneath or to remove paper therefrom. A torsion spring, within the U-shape, has a tongue secured by the spring retaining lugs.
