Excuse Me. . .
I believe you have my stapler.
This is MY stapler and I love it. It's an Ace Fastener Company Model No. 102 made in good ol' Chee-ca-go, Illinois, USA.
This stapler was originally manufactured in the 1940's and the patents listed on the bottom date back into the 1930's. I have no idea how old it truly is, but I love it! There is no doubt it's an old workhorse and it operates nearly as well as it did when it was new presumably. I've never had any troubles with it.
I guess the biggest reason that I like it so much it that it has a very distinct sound when you ball up your fist and rap the hell out of it in anger, like I did yesterday. The machine generates a good solid thud on the desk and an added bonus is that the sound completes the deception that I am really busy with my work. Dagwood Bumstead ain't got shit on me.
I'm sneaky like that.
