ABSTRACT:
A device for bundling newspapers and the like comprises a pair of upright walls each having an upwardly open substantially V-shaped notch formed by elements of the walls that converge downwardly and that define an interior angle of about 90.degree., the notches being in parallel alignment. In a preferred embodiment, the walls are longitudinal side walls of a box having upright end walls and having sloping top walls extending between corresponding notch-defining elements of the side walls. Newspapers are stacked on one of the top walls, with an edge thereof engaging the other top wall, and with portions extending beyond the side walls. Cords are tied around those portions to bundle the newspapers. The end walls have openings forming hand holds by which the box is lifted and which provide access to the interior of the box. The box has a shelf therein and contains a supply of cord, a cord cutter being provided along an edge of one opening. A strap may be placed over the stack centrally and is detachably engaged with portions of the top walls.
