The film holder comprises a plurality of holder elements. Adjacent holder elements are connected to each other by a pin, so that the holder elements can be pivoted. A film engaging groove is formed on a side of each of the holder elements. The film engaging grooves are aligned with each other such that a peripheral edge of the film is engaged. The holder elements being rotatable while the film engaging grooves maintain a curvilinear alignment, allows the film to be smoothly curved, and the size of the image reading device, to which the film holder is mounted, to be reduced.
