Description
April 3 1951 H. GARFIELD POCKETED DISPLAY CARD Filed Jan. 14, 1950 INVENTOR. A/FAWD GZWPF/ELD A TTORNE Y5 Patented Apr. 3, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 2 Claims.
The present invention relates generally to article display devices, and in particular it relates to display cards, on which the displayed articles are disposed for viewing and support thereby.
The main object of the present invention is the provision of a display card having means forming part thereof to yieldably support the displayed articles.
Another object of the present invention is the provision of a display card having yieldable resilient means on the back thereof whereby to support articles for visibility from the front of the card.
Still another object of my invention is the provision of a display card having a plurality of U-shaped cuts therethrough forming wings which can be bent rearwardly to extend through the back of the card, and resilient, yieldable means secured to the back of the card to limit rearward movement of the wing members.
Still another object of the present invention is the provision of a display card having a, plurality of U-shaped cuts therethrough providing wing members bendable through the card to extend rearwardly therefrom, and a backing of creped paper or the like behind the cuts whereby to yieldably and resiliently support on the cards articles threaded through the cut-outs.
Other and further objects of the present invention will in part be apparent and in part specifically pointed out in the following description of an illustrative embodiment of my invention.
In the drawing annexed hereto and forming a part hereof,
Figure 1 is a front elevational view of one form of device constructed according to and embodying my invention;
Figure 2 is a rear elevational view thereof, partly broken away; and
Figure 3 is a vertical section on the line 33 of Figure 1.
The device of my invention, indicated generally by reference numeral Ill, comprises a sheet l2, of any desired size and shape, of thin section rigid material, as cardboard, fiberboard or the like, of the type usually employed for article display use. Other materials, as thin-section metal, plywood, etc., may also be used, but I have found cardboard to be Well adapted for use with my invention. A plurality of U-shaped cuts, as 14, M, may be stamped through the body of sheet 12, and the material of the sheet across the upper ends of the legs of the U-cuts M, It, may be scored, as at l5, It, to provide fold lines whereby the material of the body l2, defined by the cuts on three sides, may be Winged back to extend through the body I2 and rearwardly thereof, as at l8.
Cut-outs I 4, [4 may be, and preferably are, arranged in vertically extending columns and in horizontally extending rows, as shown, for ease in manufacture and use. The front of the card of my invention is indicated by reference numeral 20; the rear thereof by reference numeral 22. On the rear of card l2, and behind the cut-outs I4, I4, I dispose a sheet of creped paper 30, of such size as to overlie the cut-outs l4, l4 and secure said sheet 30 as by lines of glue or cement 32, 32 extending along both longitudinal edges of sheet 12, and by lines of glue or cement as 34, 34 extending horizontally across sheet I2 between the rows of cut-outs l4, l4.
The nature of sheet 30 is such that it stretches yieldably in the direction of its width, that is, parallel to the crimp or fold lines 3|, 3! of the creped paper, sheet 30 being mounted on the card so that its fold lines 3|, 3! extend across the width of the card. Thus, sheet 30 will stretch in a vertical direction. As will be obvious, other materials as thin rubber sheeting may be employed instead of creped paper, the desiderata being stretchability and resilience.
My display card may be used to support and display articles or objects of such size as to fit within the lateral margins of the cut-outs l4, [4. Items as D may be inserted in the pocket formed by the rearwardly folded wing l8, see Figure 3, and extended down thereinto, the material of sheet 30 yielding to define such pocket, as indicated at 50. When item D is disposed of and removed from the display card, another item D may be replaced thereon. Thus, my display device may be used repeatedly and will have a longer useful life than those cards of which a portion is torn or broken when any of the displayed articles is removed.
Having now described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A display card comprising a flat sheet of self-supporting material having a plurality of spaced-apart wing members thereon foldable rearwardly thereof defining openings therethrough, and a normally flat-lying member of non-tacky stretchable creped paper secured to the rear of the sheet behind but not to the wing members, said last named member defining a non-tacky, stretchable pocket behind each wing whereby articles to be displayed may be repeatedly placed Within the pockets and easily removed therefrom.
