ABSTRACT:
A newspaper delivery indicating device combined with a closure to protect the newspaper from the elements.
An indicator flag is held in an upright visible position prior to newspaper delivery. The front of the flag may be used for name and address indicia to assist in correct delivery.
When the newspaper is placed in the newspaper box, the trigger elements disengage, the signal flag drops over the open end of the newspaper box, closing the open end and protecting the newspaper from the weather.
Delivery of the newspaper is indicated by the absence of the signal flag.
