What you are referring to are sometimes called binder bolts and also 
available at hardware stores.

I think Hobey is referring to the brass fastener that has a round head 
and two flat legs, much like the fastener inside a folder, but with its 
own head.

I rarely use these for working (show) puppets, but I do use them for 
workshops puppets so maybe I should pick up some boxes while/if they 
are still on the shelves. Thanks for the heads up, Hobey.
