ABSTRACT:
The disclosure concerns a picture frame including an inflexible planar base and a flexible cover comprised of clear synthetic resinous material. The cover may be printed or have a layer applied on a surface thereof to form a border. The cover is provided at one edge or perhaps at a pair of opposed parallel edges, with a glued latch element. This element engages a corresponding edge on the base in the space between the latch element and the inner surface of the cover. The latch element is disengaged for the insertion of a print or photo by bending the cover adjacent the latch element for sliding the latch element off the base, inserting the print and then reinstalling the latch element on the base. Upon release of the latch element, the resiliency of the cover returns the latch element to the engaged position over the respective edge of the base.
