ABSTRACT:
A card holder and dispensing device includes a housing defining a cavity for receiving a plurality of cards therein. The front wall of the housing has an opening formed therein for loading and removing cards from the cavity of the housing, and the top wall of the housing functions as an exit rail for causing dispensing of the cards from the cavity of the housing one at a time. A roller mechanism is rotatably mounted to the front wall of the housing for dispensing of the cards from the cavity of the housing through the front wall window opening and over the top edge of the exit rail of the housing. A bow spring is positioned within the cavity of the housing for biasing the cards upwardly against the roller mechanism, wherein actuation of the roller mechanism dispenses the business cards one at a time from the cavity of the housing. An important feature of the invention is the fact that the top edge of the exit rail is located above the working surface of the roller mechanism to insure that when the top-most card is dispensed, the leading edge thereof will engage the wall surface of the exit rail and then slide upwardly and over the edge of the exit rail.
