The first newspaper holder is said to have popped up around the time the first coffee houses in European cities opened their doors. When cafs evolved into hot spots of lingering & discussing global affairs, the reading of newspapers grew ever more popular. News from all over the world, education, cultural & social food for thought: now as much as then, newspapers are channels of knowledge. in a caf, you can read them for free - & in a broad variety. This is where enjoying your daily paper also opens the door to differentiated opinion. Newspaper Holder 50cm
