Claims
- 1. A device to be carried about in a users pocket or purse with the device operable for holding a stack of individual sheets of paper without bending the papers comprising:
- a one piece frame;
- a panel, said panel integrally and cantileverly connected to said frame, said panel having a region for fastening a stack of individual sheets of paper to said panel, said panel and said frame co-acting to form a protective recess for protectively receiving and storing the stack of individual sheets of paper; and
- a first lip mounted on said frame and extending at least partially over said region for fastening the stack of individual sheets of paper, said first lip extend over a first end of the stack of individual sheets of paper;
- a second lip mounted on said frame, said second lip spaced from said panel, said second lip projecting inward into said protective recess said second lip extending over a second end of the stack of individual sheets of paper to sandwichingly hold said second end of the stack of individual sheets of paper between said resilient panel and said second lip, said second lip coacting with said panel to form means for holding a free end of the stack of individual sheets of paper between said second lip and said panel, said second lip and said panel spaced sufficiently far from each other to permit a user to flex said panel to thereby remove an individual sheet of paper from the stack of individual sheets of paper by forcing the free end of an individual sheet of paper out of said protective recess so that a user can remove the individual sheet of paper to thereby expose an unused sheet paper.
- 2. The device of claim 1 including a a compartment located in said frame for holding a writing instrument including a set of ridges located on said frame proximate said compartment for a writing instrument so that a clip on a writing instrument can engage said ridges and retain the writing instrument in said device.
- 3. The device of claim 1 including a second region for placing an advertising slogan thereon.
- 4. The device of claim 1 including recesses on said frame for molding lips onto said frame.
- 5. The device of claim 1 including a recess located on said resilient panel to provide a weakened area on said resilient panel to thereby form a resilient hinge to control the flexing of said resilient panel.
