A display stand for holding an advertisment or other notice in sheet form in an upright position on a counter or desk. The stand is constituted by a pair of complementary pieces each formed by a transparent panel having a right-angle ledge extending from its lower end so that when the two panels are brought together to sandwich a display sheet therebetween, the ledges which extend in opposite directions then define a base to support the panels in an upright position. Each panel, just above the junction of its lower end and ledge, is provided with interlocking elements in the form of a rectangular slot and a companion tongue which projects in a direction opposite to the ledge direction. When the panels are brought together, the tongue of one fits neatly into the slot of the other, each tongue having an edge notch therein making it possible to slide one panel relative to the other to a position at which the panels are then coincident with each other and are interlocked.
