1880s Hoot Owl paperclip heavy, brass-plated cast iron

A particularly fine example of a figural letter clip, paperclip, bill clip, or paperholder. It’s a fine desk accessory that may or may not have been part of a desk set (ink well, blotter, pen stand, etc.). Some bore advertising, and so, traveling salesmen handed those out the way we hand out ink pens advertising our products today. They’re collectible. I have about 200 of them and I’ll offer them on eBay gradually. No hurry.

About 4″ x 2″
Weighs: 167g or 180g
