An adjustable system for supporting a display on an elongated support member, the adjustable system comprising:
- an outer sleeve having a non-circular interior opening;
- an inner sleeve that has a non-circular exterior configured to mate with the non-circular interior opening of the outer sleeve and an open interior with at least one projection that extends into the open interior;
- a display mount that rest on the inner sleeve and has an open interior that is at least equal to the open interior of the inner sleeve;
- and,
- an elongated support with a first end exterior diameter that fits within the open interior of the display mount and the open interior of the inner sleeve and has at least one recess in the exterior diameter that is dimensioned to receive the at least one projection that extends into the open interior of the inner sleeve.
