ABSTRACT:
A container for receiving and retaining newspapers and the like which is attached to the outside surface of a door. To receive singly folded newspapers downwardly inserted into it, the container has a slot opening in its upper horizontal surface. The container also comprises a drawer which is used to retain the newspaper in the device and to transport the newspaper to a side opening in the container for its removal. When the apartment door is closed, the drawer handle abuts the adjacent door jamb prohibiting the opening of the drawer. In order to open the drawer and withdraw the newspaper, the apartment door must be opened a sufficient distance to allow the drawer to be slid open clear of the door jamb. A hand restraining means is included in the container assembly to discourage a hand from being inserted into its top opening to remove its contents. The container is mounted to both vertical edges of a door adjacent to the door exterior surface.
