"NEWSPAPER BURNER FOR FIREPLACE" Abstract of the Disclosure A newspaper burner comprises a base member fox supporting a stack of newspapers to be burned while permitting air circulation for the combustion thereof, the stack of newspapers comprising at least one group of newspaper sheets folded about a fold line extending widthwise of the newspaper to define a fold edge and a pair of free edges joined at the fold line and being arranged on the base member with the free edges resting thereon, and a back member upstanding from the base member for retaining such group of newspaper sheets with the fold edge thereof extending upwardly. A leg member is fixed to the base member for supporting the base member and back member at a tilt angle whereby to hold the newspapers in a manner to promote a con- tinuous gradual burning thereof. When ignited, the outermost sheet of the newspaper stack tends to burn from its free bottom edge upwardly and in so doing to curl up and peel away from the underlying sheets of newspaper along the fold edge, thus effectively supplying the successively burning sheets with combustion air. This results not only in a progressive or substantially one-at-a-time burning of the individual sheets of the newspaper stack, but also in a complete and efficient burning thereof since owing to the positioning of the back member at a tilt angle, the portion of newspapers adjacent the fold edge which is more compact and harder to burn and which remains after the major portion of the individual sheets has burnt away falls forwardly down onto the base member and continues to burn slowly to fine ashes. -1-
