  • Patent number: 3990735
    Abstract: A device for facilitating the delivery of newspapers by motor vehicle to individual residential customers on what is commonly referred to as a motor delivery route. The device generally comprises a tubular holder to receive and embrace one end portion of a rolled or folded newspaper, said holder having a rigid handle extended rearwardly therefrom to enable the holder to be maneuvered from within the delivery vehicle into proximity to the customer's roadside or curbside receiver or receptacle, such as a newspaper tube or mailbox, without requiring the delivery person to leave the vehicle when the roadside receiver or receptacle is obstructed by a snowdrift or by a snowbank that has been plowed to the side of the roadway, or by a pile of construction material or refuse awaiting pickup, or other obstructions which prevent the delivery vehicle from approaching the receiver within normal arm's reach.
