ABSTRACT:
A method for stably and easily exhibiting a flat plate-like article such as a flat exhibited article so as to be easily observed and less turned over and the flat plate-like article stably and simply exhibitable so as to be easily observed and less turned over and manufacturable at low cost. The flat plate-like article comprises two or more flat plate-like members and one or more connection parts. The flat plate-like article is characterized in that (A) any first and second flat plate-like members are connected to each other through the connection part and positioned on the border line of these both members and projected backward from the border line so that they can be double-spread and (B) the flat plate-like article can be self-stood when the first and second flat plate-like members are brought into a double-spread state so that a state that the insides of the first and second flat plate-like members are positioned diagonally upward relative to a ground contact surface when at least a part of the bottom-side of the connection part, at least a part of the bottom-side of the first flat plate-like member, and at least a part of the bottom-side of the second flat plate-like member are used as the ground contact parts.
