Calling people who've been to Vienna: help?

If you've been to a Viennese cafe at some point, you've probably seen the wooden devices they have for placing newspapers in front of you and read them without having to hold them. They stand alone, hold the newspaper for you, and you can comfortably read and change pages while you sip your coffee or eat dessert. I am dying to know how to find one of those for my house, but I have no idea what the name for them is. If you know a word (in English or German) that denotes those things, then I might just be able to conduct my search!

This may not be much help, I think it's called "der Zeitungshalter" in German. Here's a picture of it:
