Fay in 1867, in the U.S. The original intent was to use it to attach tickets to fabric. However, its use for holding paper together quickly became apparent. though a norweigan man Johan Vaaler’s paperclip design, it was (and still is) erroneously believed in his home country of Norway that he was the inventor of the paperclip. Therefore, in 1940, during the German occupation of Norway, students of Oslo University began to wear the paperclip as a non-violent symbol of resistance...Released in 2004, an American documentary traces the story of the inception of the Paper Clips Project, which began as a project at Whitwell Middle School, Tennessee...so next time you see a plain old paper clip...you'll view it very differently.</p>
