Abstract

The invention relates to a container for flat objects in a vertical position, comprising a base, two lateral longitudinal sides and two front sides, the flat objects being aligned with their largest surfaces facing the front sides. At least one front side consists of at least one material web, whose axes run parallel to the base, which is mobile in relation to the front side and can be displaced downwards into a gap in the base. The material web is flexible and thin and is suspended by its ends that run perpendicular to the longitudinal sides between two bars. The lower bar is configured in the gap in the base and is displaceable and the upper bar can be displaced between the base and the upper edge along the front delimitation of the longitudinal sides.
