ABSTRACT:
A one-piece backing and support assembly, for use in mounting photographs and the like, includes a flat backing panel having an elongate support leg partly cut out from the panel, and two stays on either side of the leg, also partly cut out from the panel and integrally connected at their lower ends to the panel and at their upper ends to side tabs on the support leg, intermediate its ends. The upper end of the support leg is detachably engageable with partly cut out tags on the panel located to hold the support leg and stay in positions where they each extend angularly away from the panel so as to support it at an angle on a horizontal surface. Integrally formed at one side of the backing panel is an apertured frame panel which is folded across the backing panel and secured, leaving an edge slot through which a photograph may be inserted between the panels, so as to be visible through the aperture in the frame panel.
