Small and simple collection today and one I don't add to very often. I see clipboards at estate sales but try to only add those that are a little more interesting or unusual.
This is a fun full size clipboard with a map of the United States on it.
This is a smaller clipboard and I like the red clip on it. I love how scratched and chewed up these boards get...the patina of use.
This clipboard must have hung in a special spot with its hanger attached to the top.
This clipboard has the best checkerboard pattern and I love the green color. You may see this clipboard occasionally as the background of some of the photos I take.
My Mom gave this memo board to me a few years ago. While it is not a clipboard, it is metal and holds memos and such. Original pencil still attached. It also has a little pocket where you can collect your receipts and bills. It hangs in my kitchen.
This memo board has a clip attached but is intended to be screwed to a wall and then has a clip to hold paper items. I like the dimpled metal on this one.
OK.
A useful collection today. If you have an idea for a future collection challenge, leave me a comment and finish the sentence "Show me your collection of _____". Something new each week!
Your checkerboard pattern clipboard is pretty nifty. I can see why you'd use this for photoshoots.

You need to write a book or something on all your collections! I always thought of a clipboard as being brown with a clip on it! LOL I'm partial to the checkered one.
Love the one your mom gave you too.
Thanks for sharing :-)

Clipboards always catch my eye too. Actually, most old office supplies get my attention. Even if it's just old boxes of paperclips, no doubt for the boxes' graphics.
That red clip is awesome, but so is the checkerboard!

Neat little collection, especially the green checker one.

I never would have guessed clip boards.... Love the one your mom gave you and the metal one looks like hammered aluminum. Fun group.

Well this is an interesting collection. How do you display/use them? I think they would be great hanging in an office. I'm on the hunt now!

Very cute and unusual collection but that's no surprise coming from you. Always fun to see things through your eyes and no doubt cute clipboards will be jumping out at me from all over now.
