Any person who operates a store, newsstand, booth, concession or

retail containing pictures, drawings or photographs.
It is hereby declared to be a prohibited act for any retailer to display
or permit to be displayed at his business premises any obscene material as
defined in N.J.S.A. 2C:34-3, at a height of less than five feet
or without a blinder or other covering placed or printed on the front of the
