Abstract A combined storage bin and display assembly for rolls of decorative paper, such as wallpaper, wherein a plurality of parallel upstanding partitions are arranged along an essentially straight-line path with each of the partitions being disposed at an angle with respect to the straight-line path. Shelves span the space between successive ones of the partitions to form vertically-spaced bins for the storage of rolls of decorative paper, the shelves terminating before a forward edge of an associated one of each of the partitions whereby a display area is formed for each bin between the termination of its shelf and the forward edge of an associated partition. In this manner, a sample of the decorative paper stored in a bin can be displayed on a display area in front of the bin, all of the display areas being readily visible to a shopper as he walks along the forward edges of the storage bins.
