ABSTRACT:
An improved decorative display assembly having the aspect of a three dimensional sculpture is provided, as well as a novel kit and the present novel method of fabricating the same. In this regard, a frame may be provided to which a first series of display sheets are separately connected in spaced relation. The sheets may be, for example, photos, prints, fluorescent cards or other sheets bearing decorative indicia on one side thereof.
The prints have been made self-supporting by attaching mounting boards to the indicia-free sides thereof. These first sheets form a first structural level for the assembly. Spacers, preferably in the form of small blocks, are then fixedly connected to marginal portions of the photo-bearing surfaces of the prints, whereupon a second series of prints are connected adjacent their margins, and via their mounting board backings to the first sheets so as to only partially overlap the first sheets and thus form a second structural level to the sculpture.
Additional series of display sheets can be similarly connected to provide additional structural level, all to ultimately form the desired three dimensional multi-level sculpture montage effect of free form or predetermined shape. The end product is a highly decorative display.
The display sheets can be coated with clear plastic or the like to render them permanently protected, whereupon the finished individualized sculpture assembly can be mounted on a table, wall or the like for display.
The kit provides the necessary materials for fabricating the assembly according to individual taste or according to patterns which can be included in the kit. The kit may include, in addition to the previously described components, such items as temporary supports to align components before they are permanently fixed in place, color coded edge margins for the prints, etc. The box in which the kit can be supplied can itself form part of the kit in that it can be used as a support frame, if desired, for the assembly. Moreover, lighting means, fluorescent cards and other decorative display means, such as screens, can be incorporated into the kit to facilitate fabrication of the desired decorative assembly.
