Abstract: A newspaper vending rack is designed to be transported and stored in a disassembled format. The rack includes four side wall members that are accommodated within channels or grooves formed in each of the top and bottom members of the rack. The top and bottom members are held together, to thereby clamp the side wall members in place, by a pair of guide rods that support an elevator shelf and are pinned to the top member and bolted to the bottom member. One of the side wall members includes a frame supporting a pivotable door that provides access to the interior of the enclosure formed by the rack.
