Abstract
A display device for advertising or other purposes has a generally vertical support portion fastened to a wall or shelf railing, a dangling portion with a three-dimensional configuration, and an elongated strip-shaped portion extending from the bottom of the support portion to the dangling portion in an arc-shaped configuration. The display device is formed from a unitary sheet of resilient material by appropriate folds and the sealing together of particular portions of the device with adhesive strips located on the sheet. The device is particularly useful for advertising representations of squeeze tubes, such as those used for toothpaste or hair cream.
Claims5
A display device for arrangement into a three-dimensional configuration, comprising:
- a unitary, thin, flexible sheet having a front information display surface and a back surface, the sheet having a first section and a second section with a dividing line therebetween, said first section having a dangle portion adjacent said dividing line which is connected to a support portion remote from said dangle portion by an elongated spine portion, said spine portion is relatively narrow compared to said support portion, said second section having at least one tab extending from each of its edges that are perpendicular to the dividing line, said tabs being located adjacent the edge that is parallel to and remote from the dividing line;
- first adhesive means located on the front of said dangle portion in a strip that is parallel to and adjacent the dividing line;
- and
- second adhesive means located on the front of said second section in a strip that is parallel to the dividing line and extends between the tabs, whereby upon arrangement of said device in its three-dimensional configuration, said first adhesive means secures together the front surfaces of the first and second sections adjacent a crease along the dividing line, said second adhesive means secures the front surface of the second section remote from the dividing line to the back of the second section adjacent the dividing line and also secures the front of the tabs onto the back of the botton of the first section in order to form a three-dimensional shape that is mounted on the front of the dangle portion, said support portion being sharply bent toward said spine portion at its intersection with the spine portion so that when the device is in its display position, the spine portion arches away from the bottom of the support portion and suspends the dangle portion containing the three-dimensional shape.
