Systems and Methods for Bollard Cover Media Advertising

Abstract

A system and method of covering a bollard with removeable advertising. The bollard cover comprises a sock that has graphics printed on it which has a retention mechanism near an open end to releaseably couple the sock to the bollard. Preferably the sock is made of a flexible, stretchable fabric and the retention mechanism is made of elastic. In a preferred embodiment, the fabric sock is longer than the bollard is tall and is made of flexible material that stretches in both directions. When the fabric sock is used in combination with a rigid sleeve over the bollard, the excess sock is caught between the sleeve and the bollard such that, as the sleeve and sock are pushed down over the bollard, the sock is tightened, presenting a smooth graphic design that looks as if it is painted on the bollard.
