A sheet-like, integral plastic accessory for a notebook is disclosed featuring at least one paper clip sheet. Each paper clip sheet is formed with a frame as defined by a pair of parallel spaced rims and a pair of outer cross rims. A plurality of ribs extend between the parallel spaced rims in parallel spaced relation to one another. A plurality of paper clip configurations extend from the rims and the ribs. Each paper clip configuration is formed with inner and outer elongated bands joined at one end at a nexus. A pair of curved segments define the nexus at one side thereof, with a constricted portion defining the same at an opposed side. Preferably, a pair of shoulders straddle the constricted portion and a burr connects the constricted portion of the paper clip configuration to the rims and the ribs. Preferably, the nexus is wider and stronger adjacent the curved segments than at the constricted portion, allowing the inner band to bend thereat with respect to the outer band without fracture. Stress points exist at the constricted portion, whereby manipulating one of the pair of shoulders causes severing of the paper clip configuration from the sheet of clips.

A sheet of clips for use in combination with a notebook having a plurality of loops, said sheet comprising: (a) a sheet of paper clips having a plurality of openings in registry with said loops; (b) said sheet framed between parallel spaced rims and cross rims; (c) a plurality of ribs parallel spaced to said cross rims and extending between said parallel spaced rims; and (d) a plurality of paper clip configurations extending from said cross rims and said ribs; (e) each of said paper clip configurations including an outer band and an inner element, an inner junction connecting said band to said element, and an outer junction connecting said band to one of said cross rims and said ribs; (f) said outer junction being constricted, whereby a stress point exist between said outer junction and said band such that bending said clip configuration with respect to said outer junction effects separation thereof from said sheet.
