What has been made thinner and also considering the appearance of the back surface has not been known so far. In this way, the conventional frame has the overall appearance, including the front and back sides, and has a high degree of message and memorial as a souvenir, gift, etc., as it is thinner and more compact. Things are not known.

[0006]

The present invention provides a picture frame characterized in that a message board or a back board that can be opened and closed is buried such that the back face is flush with the back face of the picture frame main body.

[0007] The invention of the present application is also directed to a frame in which a picture, a photograph, a decorative plate and the like are arranged and fixed with a front transparent plate and a backing plate, if necessary, at a step portion provided on the back surface of the frame main body. There is also provided a picture frame characterized in that the support legs, which can be taken out and stored, are buried in the rear face of the main body without protruding from the rear face of the picture frame main body at the time of storage.

Further, the invention of the present application is directed to a frame in which a picture, a photograph, a decorative plate and the like are arranged and fixed with a front transparent plate and a backing plate, if desired, at a step portion provided on the back surface of the frame main body. A message board or back plate, which can be opened and closed, is embedded in the step portion so that the back surface is flush with the back surface of the frame body, and the back surface of the frame body is capable of being taken out and stored.
