ABSTRACT:
A device for suspending articles such as paper, has a plurality of balls which are slidably retained within a retainer in a series arrangement with each other. The retainer is formed from a back plate, a front plate opposite the back plate which is downwardly inclined towards the back plate, and top and side plates which join the front and back plates together. A slot is formed between the side plates and the back plate for receiving paper or the like to be retained by the device. In use, the device is supported on a wall or other support with the back plate secured to the support, and with the front plate inclined downwardly towards the back plate and the wall to form a ramp for the balls. When sheets of paper or the like to be retained in the device are pushed upwardly into the slot, they raise the balls somewhat in an upward direction, and pass between the balls and the back plate. When the paper sheets or other articles are released, the balls move downwardly along the inclined front plate by virtue of gravity and the paper sheets or the like are secured in place between the balls and the back plate. One or more of the sheets can be removed by drawing them out of the slot formed between the side plates and the back plate.
