Abstract
A retention clasp comprising a unique, securing mechanism element of a one piece, semi-rigid body for which the securing mechanism element includes two opposing, co-acting, and resilient member segments for holding several sheets of paper or the like together (hereafter “structure-to-be-secured”); wherein each member segment engages portions of structure-to-be-secured on opposite sides in a jaw-like manner to thereby prevent or hinder the movement of structure-to-be secured relative to the surfaces in at least one direction, prevent or hinder the separation of distinct portions of the structure-to-be-secured from each other, or perform a securement of structure-to-be-secured by over-edge engagement thereof; wherein each member segment has an unobstructed, continuous, flat outer surface; and wherein the member segments can be easily moved into and out of engagement with the structure-to-be-secured by direct manual, hand actuated force.
