Media display assembly and merchandising system associated therewith

An assembly for use with a merchandise display unit, the merchandise display unit including a base deck having a substantially horizontal top surface and a substantially vertically extending wall, the assembly comprising:

• an elongated, substantially vertically extending sign holder including means for compressively holding a substantially planar sign between two panels;
• means for supporting the elongated, substantially vertically extending sign holder above the base deck;
• means for coupling the means for supporting to the base deck using an array of apertures defined through the substantially horizontal top surface of the base deck, wherein the means for coupling the means for supporting is configured to be used in two different orientations to couple the means for supporting to at least two sizes of base decks;
• means for extending from a top of the means for supporting rearwardly toward the substantially vertically extending wall;
• and
• means for coupling the means for extending with the substantially vertically extending wall.

A method of installing a sign as part of a merchandising system, the method comprising:

• securing a mounting foot to a base deck of a merchandise display unit using two or more of the apertures defined through the base deck;
• selectively coupling a bottom end of an inverted, L-shaped structure to the mounting foot, wherein the bottom end of the inverted, L-shaped structure is defined at a front of the inverted, L-shaped structure and a rear end of the inverted, L-shaped structure is rearwardly offset from the bottom end;
• selectively coupling the rear end of the inverted, L-shaped structure to a substantially vertically extending pegboard panel of the merchandise display unit, the substantially vertically extending pegboard panel extending upwardly from the base deck;
• selectively securing an elongated sign holder to the inverted, L-shaped structure;
• and
• placing a sign in the elongated sign holder, wherein the elongated sign holder and the sign collectively cover a substantial entirety of a substantially vertically extending length of the inverted, L-shaped structure, and placing the sign in the elongated sign holder includes sliding the sign in between two substantially planar walls of the elongated sign holder, at least one of the two substantially planar walls being one of substantially transparent and translucent.
