ABSTRACT:
An article holder adapted to hold pens, pencils or other articles, such as for example hand tools, is formed as a rigid receptacle having a pair of opposed side walls and at least one open end. A spring arrangement is positioned within the receptacle adjacent one open end for biasing articles placed in the receptacle through its open end towards one of the side walls, while also serving to resist transverse movement of the article with respect to the spring thereby to hold the article in a relatively fixed position in the receptacle, without disturbing the remainder of the spring so that the remainder of the spring is available for holding other articles placed in the receptacle. In addition, a stop ledge arrangement is provided in the receptacle adjacent its lower end to limit the depth of insertion of articles into the receptacle and to aid in holding the articles in a relatively fixed position therein. The receptacle is adapted to be removably or permanently secured to a support element, by a clip or other type of mounting arrangement.
