NATIONAL PAPERCLIP DAYI think, maybe you are thinking, how this small paperclip could be celebrated this day and what importance it has ? You are true. While many may have claimed the earlier invention of the paperclip, according to the Early Office Museum, Samuel B. Fay received the first patent for a “bent wire paper clip” in the United States in 1867. The original intention of Fay’s clip was to attach tickets to fabric. However, U.S. patent 64,088 recognized that paperclips could also hold papers together.As many as 50 others received patents for similar designs before 1899. One other notable name receiving a patent for his paperclip design in the United States was Erlman J. Wright in 1877. At that time, he advertised his clip for use in fastening newspapers.and finally it's registered under the trademark name of GEM in 1904. Anyhow ,it's sticky ,can hold the paper together without giving risk and sustain our paper values .
