Abstract
Abstract A wall mounted sheet holder comprises a mounting block carrying an adhesive layer on one face for fixing to the wall, and a holder unit including a plate formed at its upper end with a cutout or opening adapted to be received on the mounting block. The holder unit includes a hollow compartment having an inclined face, and a roller disposed within the compartment and guided by the inclined face to hold the sheet, when inserted into the compartment, between the roller and the plate. The sheet holder may include a plurality of the mounting blocks adapted to be fixed to the wall in spaced relationship, and at least two of the holder units each attachable to one of the mounting blocks to enable them to hold different size sheets.
