Abstract
A support rack is arranged to include a base having a shaft mounted fixedly and orthogonally relative to the base rotatably mounting a tubular housing having first and second flanges, wherein the first and second flanges are arranged to pivotally mount U-shaped frameworks to position and secure baseball cards and the like for ease of viewing and access. Each of the U-shaped frames is arranged to include a first and second U-shaped channel leg in facing relationship relative to one another having an intermediate web permitting positioning of cards between the first and second U-shaped channel legs on opposed sides of the intermediate web for display. A further configuration of the invention is arranged to include an illumination structure to direct illumination onto the card structure mounted within the U-shaped frames.
