The container is provided at one end thereof with means for readily and releasably connecting the same in an upright position with a stationary object, while a supporting post is connectible to said sheet at the free end thereof and adapted to be secured to a stationary object at a distance from said firstmentioned stationary object to thus support the unwound sheet in a substantially vertical position.Field of SearchPortable | |
