Abstract:

A card holder having a spring biased, card-holding clamp and a support with first and second side members that are attached to each other at the top of the support. Each side member extends downwardly and outwardly with respect to each other, defining an angle therebetween. Ends of the clamp are mountable on the side members below a first stop and between second stops disposed on at least one of the side members. The spring-biased clamp and outwardly extending side members cooperatively bias the clamp upwardly. The first stop prevents upwardly movement of the clamp beyond a predetermined vertical position, and the second stops prevent movement of the clamp beyond preselected horizontal locations.
