Abstract: A storage device for storing rolled documents includes a tube pivotally mounted to a housing and advanceable between retracted and extended positions relative to a roof of the housing. The roof covers an open end of the tube in the retracted position. In the extended position, the open end of the tube is advanced away from the roof to permit rolled construction drawings to be inserted into and removed from the tube. A floor extends across at least a portion of the tube to prevent the rolled documents from falling out of the tube. Clamps mounted on the housing enable mounting of the storage device on a post, such as a T-post. The storage device may include a display panel having a pocket formed by a sheet of transparent flexible plastic into which a building permit may be positioned and displayed.

Abstract: An apparatus for an indoor-outdoor decorative trash receptacle system that allows a user to decorate or personalize a trash receptacle 12 or the like with permanent or interchangeable graphic images 14 or insignia. The system decorates a receptacle 12 in various forms including applying a graphic image directly onto the receptacle, applying a covering to the receptacle, and inserting a placard into a sleeve affixed to the receptacle. The graphic image 14 can be applied directly to the external wall 20 of the trash receptacle 12 using free form, stencil tracing, stamping or other painting techniques. This technique can also be produced onto an adhesive 24 backed vinyl placard or like material and then adhered to the exterior of the trash receptacle 12. Another system of the present invention utilizes a clear protective sleeve 26 that is affixed to the exterior of the receptacle 12. A placard 28 with a graphic image 14 is inserted into the clear sleeve 26 providing an artistic impression on the receptacle 12.
