FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a final holder for cleaning paint roller, showing my new design;
FIG. 2 is front elevational view thereof, the rear and both side elevations being substantially identical to the figure shown;
FIG. 3 is a front elevational view thereof, with the holder rotated 45.degree. about its axis;
FIG. 4 is a top plan view thereof;
FIG. 5 is a bottom plan view thereof; and,
