The holder A is formed of wire, the middle part a of which is bent twice at right angles, or is curved to give it a U form. The arms of the U have coils a. formed in them to give them a suitable elasticity, and their outer parts a are bent over parallel with their inner parts, as shown in the figure.
In using the device, the bend a is placed at the back of the book, when opened at the required place, and the arms a are placed upon the pages of the book, as shown in the drawing.
The coils (1 enable the device to be placed upon books of various thickness.
The ends of the arms a are bent to form eyes to prevent said ends from catching upon and tearing the paper.
