ABSTRACT:
An improved utility tray and bathtub caddie has a support member for supporting a tray and book stand in the vicinity of a conventional bathtub. The tray or caddie comprises a book rest, a pivotal arm for supporting the book rest, a support member for pivotally supporting the pivotal arm and a securing apparatus for securing the support member to a fixture, such as a bathtub, a tile wall adjacent a bathtub or other suitable fixtures. The pivotal arm is supported for pivotal motion over a bathtub, such that the book rest may be conveniently positioned over a bather in a location in which the bather can easily access the book rest and/or view reading material held on the book rest. The pivotal arm may be pivoted to move the book rest toward one side of the bathtub so as to allow the bather to easily enter and exit the bathtub without disturbing items held on the book rest. Several embodiments are disclosed.
