ABSTRACT:
A base which can be attached to a wall adjacent to a tub holds a flat spring secured to the base, the distal end of which flat spring holds an end of a shower curtain firmly against the wall in order that dripping and splashing may be prevented as a result of the use of the shower. The flat spring has an arcuate tab on the underside of the distal end of the spring and a handle on the exterior side of the distal end of the spring in order that the spring may be manually lifted away from an engaged shower curtain to release the shower curtain from the wall as desired. A circular ring in the cap fixed to the proximal end of the spring engages a circular channel in the base to secure the cap, spring and base together with a pin in the cap passing through a hole in the proximal end of the spring and to engage a shaftway in the base to secure the spring, cap and base in engagement.
