I'm looking for an old style projector screen that is a backdrop and backdrop stand. All I can find on the web is the typical stands with a cross member. Does anybody know of a supplier?

30 seconds on google provided maybe the following that might have what you want.
I am presuming you want a projection screen that is supported on both sides, versus supported in middle?
http://www.ausmedia.com.au/projectors_options.htm
http://www.studioexperience.com/technologyresources/choosingascreen.asp
http://www.projectorpeople.com/screens/screen_guide.asp
and a 45 second click through (took so long because system was slow) at BH got me to this page

BH also has a lot of backdrops available if actual projection screens don't work for you.
Hopefully one of those will work for you.

I've spent hours on google trying to find what I'm looking for. Your links are for projector screens. What I'm looking for are backdrops (Blue, Grey, etc) that are like projector screens -- Supported in the middle (Tripod) - Yes, there are a lot of backdrops at B&H. None of them are what I'm looking for -- self supported. Thanks anyway ...

you asked for a projector screen in your post. could you maybe do a quick sketch in ms paint so we can see what you're talking about? that might help a bit. this is all i came up with, too.

sorry if it's not what your looking for. most of them are self supported, but i don't know if they come with the backgrounds attached.

I think he's looking for something like this, but where the screen is actually a backdrop that pulls down and rolls up similar to a portable projector screen:

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that the picture I posted is a backdrop. It's actually a projector screen, but wouldn't it be cool to have a one piece, folding, roll down backdrop that worked just like this projector screen?
Hmmm..... Maybe this is the new POTN item that CDS was saying he needs a machine shop to make. :D

Talk about being mis-quoted --- Look above, it actually says "I'm looking for an old style projector screen that is a backdrop and backdrop stand"
Basically projector screen that has blue instead of white
