Abstract
A copy holder is provided with a document holding stand supported adjustably by a support structure to provide a stable support while allowing operator controlled, incremental adjustment through a working range to vary the angle at which the document holding stand is supported. The adjustable support structure is provided by spring clutches on either end of a shaft which can be releasably held in housings attached to the document holding stand and these points of attachment together with a back leg provide for stable support with the incremental adjustment effected by releasing the spring clutch to adjust the gripping position on the shaft relative to the point of attachment for the back leg.
