ABSTRACT:
An aid for reading indicia, such as that printed on golf scorecards and protecting the scorecard from inclement weather. The apparatus includes a base panel, and a back panel connected together near a first back panel edge. A magnifying lens is mounted to the back panel near a second, opposite back panel edge. A golf scorecard is retained against the base panel by two retaining clips. The apparatus is opened by hinging the base panel to a perpendicular orientation relative to the back panel, and hinging the magnifying lens to a perpendicular orientation relative to the back panel to form a U-shaped structure resting on one side leg. In this configuration, the magnifying lens and the base panel, to which the scorecard is mounted, are parallel and spaced apart. The space is enough to permit a user's hand to write on the scorecard. When closed, the device preferably fits in a rear pants pocket.
