ABSTRACT:
A sheet dispenser for dispensing one sheet at a time comprises an enclosure for holding a stack of, individual sheets. A biasing element is provided for resiliently urging a stack of individual sheets against a front wall of the enclosure. The enclosure front wall has an opening provided therein through which a front sheet of a stack of sheets is withdrawn by a user's fingers. The opening has a height dimension at least approximately equal to the height dimension of a front sheet of a stack of sheets. The opening has a width dimension sufficient to permit a user to insert at least one finger into the opening, drag a section of a front sheet across the opening and fold a portion of a front sheet outwardly of a stack of sheets through the opening to enable withdrawal of an entire front sheet from a stack of sheets. The front wall has portions inclined from the opening rearwardly towards either end forming planer or concave surfaces.
