ABSTRACT:
An improved hanger for storage and display of material such as fabric and the like. The hanger includes opposed panel sides interconnected at an upper spine portion. Fabric or other material is placed between the panels and is retained by a unique set of clips applied externally of the panel sides combined with and high-friction components including friction plates or clips with friction nibs positioned within the panels. A resilient spring clip is moved into a gripping position so as to impart pressure to the assemblage. Embodiments of the friction plates include a first U-shaped bracket element designed to be friction fitted along a side of one of the panels, while a second U-shaped bracket element is configured to be friction fitted along an opposing panel. The first bracket includes a detent arrangement for retaining the spring clip in a gripping position. The second bracket includes a spring clip retaining arrangement so as to prevent detachment of the spring clip when it is moved to its release position.
