ABSTRACT:
A device for properly aligning and registering a display panel onto an adhesive backing panel to create a display article is provided, as well as a method and kit for such registration. The alignment device comprises a base having two wall portions which define an area within the base that is geometrically congruent to the display and backing panels. The wall portions are skewed with respect to one another, defining limit stops against which the display and backing panels can be placed to inhibit their movement and enable proper registration. The alignment device is preferably made out of a unitary construction of plastic, with the base having an arcuate cut-out along its perimeter. A method for registering the display panel on the backing to create a display article provides for proper placement of the panels into the alignment device. A kit includes a plurality of backing panels with adhesive layers, and an alignment device. Backing panels may include a removable protective sheet on the adhesive layer and a magnetic strip.
