Abstract
A container especially adapted to hold a plurality of loose articles, comprising bottom, side, back and front walls, at least certain of said walls being reticular to permit visibility of contents from outside the container. Support means for the container extend rearwardly and laterally, providing generally three-point support, and the front wall is hinged to permit quick access to the interior of the container. In preferred embodiments the container is essentially of wire construction and is generally wedge-shaped in horizontal configuration, the support means extending from the periphery of the container at the back and sides thereof, and the front wall being hinged at the bottom thereof to permit dropping of the front wall, with means latching said front wall in closed position.
