Abstract
A shelf having front and rear ends is adapted to rest on a horizontal bar spaced from a wall to which it is attached. A vertical stabilizing member extends downwardly from the rear end portion of the shelf between the bar and the wall and has an adjusting pin projecting from its back into engagement with the wall to hold the shelf horizontal while the back of the shelf engages the wall. The pin also projects from the front of the stabilizing member and supports a nut that is adjusted forward on the pin to engage the back of the bar to hold the rear ends of the shelf and pin against the wall.

An article support comprising a shelf having front and rear ends and adapted to be supported by a horizontal bar spaced from a wall to which the ends of the bar are attached, a stabilizing member extending downwardly from the rear end portion of the shelf, an adjusting pin extending rearwardly through said stabilizing member and projecting from the front of that member, the pin being adjustable lengthwise in the stabilizing member, and a nut mounted on the pin in front of the stabilizing member, said stabilizing member and nut being adapted for insertion between such a wall and horizontal bar with the shelf above the bar, and the nut being adjustable forward on said pin toward the back of the bar to hold the rear ends of the shelf and pin against the wall.
A carrier for a roll of paper or the like that has an axial passage extending therethrough, comprising a carrier base, a central post above the base rigidly secured at its lower end to the base and extending up through the roll passage and above the roll to form a handle, the diameter of the post above the roll being less than the diameter of the roll passage, all of said carrier base being located below the roll to permit unrestricted manual unwinding of the roll by pulling the paper in a direction substantially parallel to the base, and at least one rigid vertical pin extending upwardly beside the rolll from said base adjacent its edge for restricting accidental unwinding of the roll.
