I have purchased a small supply of Faultless pencil clips (a.k.a., pocket clips) as a FREE give-away—while the supply lasts—for people who purchase a 20-pack or 30-pack of Whizbang NOTES (Click Here to purchase).
I'm not a pencil clip expert, but my understanding is that these clips were made by the Van Valkenburg Company of Chicopee, Massachusettes, which was established in 1896 and is no longer in business. Click Here to learn more about the Van Valkenburg Company.
Faultless pencil clips have a reputation for quality and were once very popular with farmers, carpenters and other tradesmen. They are a practical tool for keeping a pencil in your pocket, and a nifty little piece of Americana.
