ABSTRACT:
A multi-image display device has an arcuate platen formed by mounting a transparent flexible sheet in compression to a frame. The platen is convex or otherwise bow-shaped. Associated with the platen are a translucent image sheet having a plurality of images thereon and a restricting layer having transparent and opaque portions associated with the image sheet to permit viewing of those portions of the image sheet that register with the transparent portions of the restricting layer. Suitably altering the alignment of the image sheet relative to the restrictive layer (or vice versa) changes the image that is displayed.
