Abstract: A rotary file is disclosed herein for holding a plurality of photo holders slideably carried on a pair of spaced-apart rings between support members which are mounted on a base by a swivel mechanism. The rings include an extension arm securing each ring to a turning shaft having its opposite ends rotatable through the spaced support members. Each ring includes a space or gap between opposing end segments selectively opened and closed by a closure element such as a movable sleeve or the like. Each photo holder includes openings to receive the rings so as to be slideably carried thereon. Knobs mounted on opposite ends of the turning shaft permit manual rotation of the shaft about a horizontal axis while the photo holders are loosely held on the rings.
