A display assembly with integrated mounting system, said display assembly comprising:

• a first mounting device comprising a first complementary portion extending, at least primarily, in an outward and upward direction to provide an upward facing opening;
• and
• a side assembly comprising a display layer, a backlight, and a second mounting device located, at least in part, rearward of at least a viewing surface of the display layer, said second mounting device comprising a second complementary portion extending, at least primarily, in an inward and downward direction to provide a downward facing opening, inward and outward being relative to a forward surface of the side assembly;
• wherein the first mounting device receives the side assembly by complementary engagement of the first complementary portion and the second complementary portion by way of the upward and downward facing openings thereof such that the first complementary portion is received, at least in part, within and overlaps vertically and horizontally, at least in part with, the second complementary portion, said complementary engagement securing, at least in part, the side assembly to the first mounting device in a removable fashion.

A double sided display assembly with integrated mounting system, said display assembly comprising:

• a structural framework comprising a first mounting device comprising a laterally extending portion, a first set of one or more hook shaped portions facing upward and extending from a first side of the laterally extending portion, and a second set of one or more hook shaped portions facing upward and extending from a second, opposing side of the laterally extending portion;
• a first side assembly comprising a first cover, a first liquid crystal display layer located behind the first cover, a first backlight for directly backlighting the first liquid crystal display layer, and a second mounting device located rearward of the first liquid crystal display layer and comprising a third set of one or more hook shaped portions facing downward;
• and
• a second side assembly comprising a second cover, a second liquid crystal display layer located behind the second cover, a second backlight for directly backlighting the second liquid crystal display layer, and a third mounting device located rearward of the second liquid crystal display layer and comprising a fourth set of one or more hook shaped portions facing downward;
• wherein the first mounting device receives the first side assembly by complementary engagement of the first set of one or more hook shaped portions with the third set of one or more hook shaped portions, engagement of which secures the first side assembly to the first mounting device in a removable fashion;
• wherein the first mounting device receives the second side assembly by complementary engagement of the second set of one or more hook shaped portions with the fourth set of one or more hook shaped portions, engagement of which secures the second side assembly to the first mounting device in the removable fashion.
