ABSTRACT:
A weather-proof and inexpensive advertising pocket for attachment to a shopping cart in a manner permitting direct viewing by a user of the cart of printed matter insertable into the pocket. A continuous back is of generally rectangular configuration. A transparent window of approximately the same horizontal width as the back, but of less vertical height, is aligned in parallel planar relationship with the back such that the window spans most of the area of the back except along one horizontal edge of the back. A lip is of approximately the same horizontal width as the back and is of sufficient vertical height to span the area of the back not spanned by the window and to overlap a small portion of the window in a manner preventing precipitation from entering the pocket. An internal pocket area is provided by sealing the back, window and lip about the edges of the back. The window and lip are fabricated from flexible sheet material such that an edge of the lip overlapping an edge of the window are separable from each other for inserting or removing printed matter from the internal pocket area. Attachment means for securing the pocket about a portion of the mesh work of the cart includes a pair of straps fastened at one end thereof along an edge of the back, a first pair of snap-type fasteners secured to the back along an opposite edge, and a second pair of snap-type fasteners secured to the other ends of the straps, with the second pair of fasteners adapted for cooperation with the first pair of fasteners such that the straps are in a generally parallel spaced-apart relationship, with a portion of the mesh work of the cart securing and supporting the pocket between the back and the straps of the pocket.
