ABSTRACT:
A short, crescent-shaped copy stand engages the bottom edges of sheets and holds the sheets upright. The stand includes a back and an integrally formed, relatively small front block. The back has a downwardly and forwardly sloping concave sheet backing wall, a substantially horizontal top wall and a stepped front wall. A ledge or step extends forward from the lower edge of the sheet backing wall. The ledge slopes downward and inward from the its outer edges. The backing is concavely curved about a slightly rearward sloping axis, and the ledge concavely curves or slopes slightly upward and outward along the backing wall. The block is integrally formed with the backing wall and ledge at the approximate center of the backing wall. The block has a curved, generally vertical rearward wall that extends upward from a center of the ledge. The backing and the rearward facing wall of the block define sides of a slot for receiving centers of sheet bottom edges. The backing wall, the ledge and rearward facing wall of the block hold bottom edges of sheets curved about a rearward-tilted, generally vertical axis so that the sheets stand on their own. The copy stand is small, lightweight and easy to use. Sheets are securely held upright without slipping down and rest at a slight angle, thereby facilitating reading of text on the sheets.
