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

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.

They are not used for the intended purpose anymore--to hold mens'
hats. I noticed a few people use them to hold their contribution
envelope, and sometimes children playing with the clips. I'd say
these clips are no longer needed.
