Happy Birthday, Albert Einstein.

Here’s Ralph Morse’s famous photograph of Albert Einstein’s office — just as the Nobel Prize-winning physicist left it — taken mere hours after Einstein died, Princeton, New Jersey, April 1955.

SUPER SUPER CLIPS:

Over the years our store has grown and shrank, morphed and redefined itself.  With that ebb and flow, the list of products that we bring to the public has changed as well. Few items have weathered the change with us - either because the small local companies that made them could’t continue to bear the cost of doing business, or the materials cost rose too high for us to be able to offer the items at a price we thought reasonable. Such is the price of doing business in the modern world.  

One of the products that has stood the test of time is the ever useful Super Clip. Zinc-plated steel wire is shaped to form a very large, very handy paperclip. Clips a prodigious amount of paperwork, beautifully. Box of 15 for $7.50. Made in the USA. Measures: 4” long x 1” wide.   We constantly hear from customers new and wonderful uses for them - of them, book binding (see more here), key chain, and chip clip stand out.  Regardless of how they are put to use, the Super Clip makes a lovely addition to any home or office.
