Abstract: A preformed plastic blank and a brochure holder assembled therefrom. The holder includes a front panel with an adjoining bottom panel and two adjoining side panels. Adjoining each side panel is a back panel. Each panel has a raised center portion to provide for enhanced torsional rigidity, and the adjoining panels have perforations at their common edges. To facilitate access to the brochures, the bottom panel has an inclined surface formed therein sloping downward from the rear of the holder toward the front to urge any brochures held therein towards the front of the holder. The assembled blank is held together by complementary projecting hollow fingers and cavities formed on the marginal portions of the back panels and on a flap pending from the bottom panel.
Abstract: A free-standing rack molded from plastics material provides compartments for upright storage of a booklet, a memo pad or slate-type writing device, and an elongate writing instrument. The rack is configured such that it can be formed in toto in a two-part mold of relatively simple configuration having no side-core pulls.
