Claims15
A package for retaining a rigid, generally planar article therein and for removably affixing the article to a surface, said package comprising:
- a case including a generally planar front member, a generally planar back member and a side member joining the front and back members in a spaced apart, generally co-planar relationship so as to define an interior cavity therebetween adapted to receive said article, the case further having an opening therethrough communicating with the interior cavity and having a size sufficient to permit passage of the article therethrough;
- first suction means disposed upon an exterior surface of the front member and operative to removably affix the case to a smooth surface;
- and
- second suction means disposed upon an exterior surface of the back member and operative to removably affix the article to the case, whereby said case is adapted to receive and retain the article therein as well as to provide for the removable mounting of the article onto a smooth surface.
A package for retaining a mirror therein and for removably affixing the mirror to a surface, the package comprising:
- a case fabricated from a resilient material and including a generally planar front member and a generally planar back member joined along a portion of their respective perimeters in a spaced apart, generally coplanar relationship by a side member so as to define an interior cavity therebetween adapted to receive the mirror, the unjoined portions of the respective perimeters providing an opening therethrough communicating with the interior cavity and being of a size sufficient to permit passage of the mirror therethrough;
- a first plurality of suction cups disposed upon an exterior surface of the front member and operative to removably affix the case to a smooth surface;
- and
- a second plurality of suction cups disposed upon an exterior surface of the back member and operative to removably affix the mirror to the case, whereby the package is adapted to receive and retain a mirror therein as well as to provide for the removable mounting of the mirror onto a smooth surface.
