Abstract
Shown is a one-piece clip of resilient plastic material for supporting and dispensing a plurality of advertisement cards. The clip is adapted for use with an upright panel, such as pegboard, provided with a clip-engageable edge, and comprises a pair of downwardly extending legs which are connected by a loop portion pressing the legs against the opposite sides of the upright panel. The rear leg is longer than the front leg having a forwardly extending protrusion spaced from the free end of the front leg adapted to pierce the panel rear side. A projection in the shape of an arrow extends from the front leg arranged to hold and dispense said cards.
Claims5
A one-piece, card-supporting clip adapted for use with an upright support having a clip-engageable edge comprising
- front and rear downwardly extending legs;
- a loop portion having a diameter approximately the same as or greater than the thickness of the support clip-engageable edge connecting said legs, the loop portion resiliently biasing the front leg so that it converges on the rear leg to become at its free end contiguous with the rear leg whereby the legs are adapted to press against opposite sides of said support adjacent the clip-engageable edge;
- means projecting forwardly from the front leg to support a plurality of cards;
- said rear leg being longer than the front leg and having a lower rear leg free end which curves rearwardly from the plane of the leg, the legs being essentially straight except for the rear leg curved free end, said rear leg free end terminating in approximately the same plane as the front leg;
- and
- means projecting forwardly from said rear leg spaced from the front leg free end adapted to pierce the support rear side.
