In fact, owing to the ~eometrical features of packaqing trays, these are of necessity stacked upon one another on the display racks, thereby hiding from view the very items of information of which the public should most desirably become apprised.
The use of dis~lay racks or counters with canted shelves or.some. like arranqements has almost always been cost intensive, on account of the space requirements of s~lch structures and the hi~h cost of floor area for supermar~ets.
