Abstract
The ashtray of this invention comprises a folded member having a substantially V-shaped cross-section formed by two panels with a common side. The adjoining sides of the two panels contiguous to the common side are adapted for contact with a supporting surface to support the panels thereon in an upright position, the two sides defining the bottom side of the ashtray. The two panels then define an angular space there between, the angular space having an apical portion near the common side of the panels. The ashtray further comprises an upper member connected to the two panels for supporting cigarettes or cigars in substantially horizontal positions. The upper member is spaced apart from the common side of the panels to allow the lighted ends of cigarettes or cigars to protrude into the apical portion and to allow ashes from such lighted ends to fall through the apical portion towards the bottom side of the ashtray.
