The front section extends between and is secured to the forward ends of the opposite end sections and the side and front sections each include an extension supported therefrom for swinging about an axis paralleling the upper marginal edge of the corresponding section between a lowered inverted position disposed alongside and generally paralleling the corresponding section and a raised upright and upstanding upper position forming an upward extension of the corresponding section. The side and end section extensions are disposed along the outer and inner sides of the corresponding sections, respectively, when in the lowered inverted positions and the stock rack further includes a pair of opposite side partial end wall rack sections supported and projecting inwardly from the rear ends of the side sections toward each other and including horizontally spaced apart upstanding adjacent edge portions. A gate member is removably supported in positions spanning and closing the space between the adjacent edge portions of the partial end wall sections and each of the latter also includes an extension swingably supported therefrom corresponding to the side and end section extensions, the adjacent ends of adjacent extensions including coacting structure for stationary securement of the extensions to each other when in the upper positions thereof.
