A collapsible, three-dimensional wire framework and light supporting display comprising:
- a first wire frame assembly defining a first predetermined portion of a figure;
- a second wire frame assembly defining a second predetermined portion of said figure, said second frame assembly hingedly connected to said first frame assembly for movement between a first open position and a second closed position in relationship with said first frame assembly;
- a third wire frame assembly defining a third predetermined portion of said figure, said third frame assembly hingedly connected to said first frame assembly for movement between a first erected position and a second folded position;
- said first and third frame assemblies sized and configured for enabling said first frame assembly to receive said third frame assembly at least partially within said first frame assembly when said third frame assembly is hingedly moved from said first erected position to said second folded position;
- said first, second and third frame assemblies further sized and configured for enabling said second frame assembly to receive said third frame assembly at least partially within said second frame assembly when said second frame assembly is hingedly moved from said first open position to said second closed position while said third frame assembly is in said second folded position and is received at least partially within said first frame assembly;
- and
