ABSTRACT:
A display holder (10) is formed from a main frame member that is a single extrusion. The main frame member includes opposite edge frame portions (28, 30) and a center panel (10). Frame portions (64, 66) snap onto the ends of a center panel (10) to complete a frame that extends entirely about the periphery of the display holder (10). The display holder (10) may be mounted by a mounting member (44) which includes a hinge strip (92). Hinge strip (92) and a pair of mounting member flanges (42, 90) may be made by a co-extrusion process. A rigid structural plastic is used to form the flanges (42, 90). A bendable, resilient plastic is used to form the hinge strip (96). The hinge strip (96) will bend in response to a side force applied to the display holder (10). Hinge strip (92) will act as a spring and will swing the display holder (10) back to its at rest position when the force is removed. A mounting member (118) may be used which includes a longitudinally split, tubular rib (130), with trunnions (136, 138) inserted into the end portions of the rib (130). These trunnions (136,138) may extend through aligned openings (152, 156) and mount the display holder (10) for pivotal movement about a vertical axis. A plurality of display holders (10) may be mounted close together by use of the trunnions (136, 138) and the openings (152, 156).
