ABSTRACT:
A generally L-shaped bracket for supporting and displaying a decorative light bulb and socket assembly is formed of resilient material and has a flat horizontal base portion, a contiguous vertical face portion at one end of the base portion extending outwardly perpendicular thereto, at least one aperture in the base portion for receiving various types of fasteners to secure the horizontal base portion to a generally flat surface, and an aperture in the vertical face portion defined by a circular hole near its outwardly extended end of sufficient diameter to partially encircle the neck portion of the light bulb and an adjoining narrow opening extending outwardly from the circular hole to the exterior of the vertical face portion which is smaller in width than the neck portion of the light bulb. The bracket allows a decorative light bulb and socket assembly to be installed in the bracket as a single unit without disassembly by pressing the neck portion the light bulb adjacent its socket through the narrow opening into the circular hole to become partially encircled thereby, and to be removed therefrom as a single unit by pulling the neck portion of the light bulb adjacent its socket outwardly through the narrow opening. The vertical face portion may have a tapered cross section diminishing in thickness in the vertical direction and the horizontal base portion may be provided with an opposed facing extension and may have short transverse angular projections facing toward the vertical face.
