The clip is provided in the form of a pair of identical transparent rod-like rollers each having annular recesses adjacent both ends of each roller. The distance between the recesses on each roller is selected to be greater than the width of sheet of stickers on the roll. One roller is placed on the inside of the independently supported roll of stickers. A rubber band is provided in the annular recess of adjacent ends of the rollers on both sides of the sheet of stickers to bias the rollers toward each other. A transparent tube, preferably having a length equal to the width of the sheet of stickers is mounted over the roller that extends across the face of the roll.
