ABSTRACT:
A money and card holder have a base with an integral retaining clip and an elastic retaining band. The base is a substantially rectangular in shape with an upper surface and an opposed substantially planar lower surface. Extending perpendicularly upwardly from the upper surface at one end of the base is a vertically-rising portion which joins the retaining clip to the base. The end of the retaining clip nearest the vertically rising portion is generally arched to bias the clip in a direction toward the base. The clip extends from the one end of the base toward the opposite end thereof, terminating with a leading edge that slopes upwardly and away from the upper surface to facilitate grasping by the user. Depending from an inner surface of the retaining clip is an extension, and formed on the upper surface of the base is a corresponding depression which is positioned in opposed registry with the extension and configured to receive the extension. The upper surface of the base also includes a recess which extends transversely between the side edges. The recess is sized and configured to receive a portion of an elastic retaining band which is formed into a continuous loop that encircles the base. The remaining portion of the retaining band is positioned to overlay the lower surface of the base. The one portion of the retaining band can be permanently secured within the recess.
