Got my 7 year old a $20 deluxe set for xmas a well.
I don't remember how the big ring was held down when I was a kid, but set came with some silly tacky gum crap. "spiro putty. pfft. sucks.
Originally they supplied pins that stuck through holes in the ring and paper into a cardboard based drawing surface. Of course over time the drawing surface eventually had enough holes to need replacing or your pen could get stuck.
