Abstract
An identification badge holder includes a character body that has a front and back side. The front side of the character body includes a face of an animal character, a humanoid or a licensed entity. The back side of the character body is attached to a spring loaded clip. The spring loaded clip has two arms that are hinged at a middle section, with one arm being permanently fixed to the back side of the character body and the other arm movable relative to the fixed arm so that the clip can open and close. This operation allows the spring loaded clip to attach to or release from an identification badge such as a convention or trade show badge. One of the arms also has a slot at an end for attaching to a lanyard clip.
