Can't help you on finding them, but their real original use was to hold
mens' hats, by the brim, back in the days when almost all men wore brimmed
hats.

I am lookiing for some of those spring loaded clips you used to find in
church pews, with the button on top that was pressed to raise the clip arm.
They were used for holding the songs and readings, etc. and were mounted on
the back of the pew in front of you. I found all the kneeler hardware I
need, but these little rascals are proving elusive.
