In 2005, Mr. Fentwickle spilled his important papers from a competitors clipboard while walking down the street. Bending down to retrieve said papers, he was hit by a dump truck and now sells pencils from a tin can.

Last year, Mr. Savagewood hit a very large bump in the road on the way to a construction job. He was using a CB-640 to keep his lottery ticket secure. That lottery ticket won him millions; he now lives on his own island.

Which person do YOU want to be?

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God and the Word was with God.

But, with nothing to hold the Word steady it blew away, and editing was not easy, as you had to kneel and hold the Word against a rock.

God, realizing His incompleteness, then created the clipboard.

In the revised beginning was the Word, and the Word was God, and the Word stayed with God via the clipboard.

Clipboards, the closest to God you may ever get.

Do you have papers? Then you need this device!

Have you ever had your papers scattered to the four winds by a stiff breeze? Then you simply must have this device!

Our boys down in marketing call it a "clipboard." Silly men – it would be much better described as a "lifesaver."

We know your papers are important to you and we know how much you would suffer if they were lost. Purchase our product and you'll never worry about your papers fluttering away again.

Made of exquisite brown pressed wood board with a silver tone clasp and stainless steel spring.

Ever notice that if you take a piece of paper and try to write on it in the air, IT DOESN’T WORK?
Scientists have now discovered that this is because air contains chemicals called ‘wrighta fightas,’ which prohibit the writing in air. It was long though impossible to stop these chemicals.

NOT ANY LONGER!

Zabbo Industry’s new revolutionary product, the Uberboard, blocks the wrighta fightas from touching the page, therefore leaving you to write your sonnet to your right thigh or your ode to that puddle without problem.

Don’t be oppressed by the air! But an Uberboard today!
