Canterbury
A term now applied to a stand with divisions for holding sheet music (though
more often used for magazines and newspapers) it was originally said to have
been a type of dumb waiter invented by an Archbishop of Canterbury - Sheraton
describes it as ‘made to stand by a table at supper, with a circular end, and
three partitions crosswise to hold knives, forks and plates at that end which is made
circular on purpose’.
