newspaper box

Coin-operated news dispenser

A newspaper box is a coin-operated metal dispenser, typically found on sidewalks, that holds copies of a newspaper for sale.

You insert coins, open the door, and take a paper—the system trusts you to take only one.

The morning edition was already sold out in every newspaper box on the block.

Also called a newspaper rack or news box.
