Abstract
Portable handheld sign devices and methods of use that allow a frame holder of store plural indicia covered sign boards therein, and include front facing and rear facing signboards. U-shaped frames with indicia covered signboards can be slid down to extend beneath the frame holder, and U-shaped frames with indicia covered signboards can be positioned in side channel slots to hold and support sign boards above the frame holder. The stored u-shaped frames and the front and rear signs on the frame holder also have hingedly attached signs thereon that can move from sandwiched overlapping positions to be swung out exposing indicia on the signs. The frame holder can go from showing one side board up to nine exposed signboards. The frame holder can be supported and held in one hand by a single pole handle, or held up by side lip edges.
Claims7
A portable interchangeable sign device, comprising:
- a hollow main frame having a first pair of longitudinal interior channels facing one another, the main frame having at least one of a top opening and a bottom opening;
- a first sign having visible indicia thereon for being slidable within the first pair of longitudinal interior channels from a storage position inside of the frame to an exterior position outside of the frame;
- a second pair of longitudinal interior channels facing one another inside of the main frame;
- a second sign having visible indicia thereon for being slidable within the second pair of interior channels from a storage position inside of the main frame to an exterior position outside of the frame, the first sign for being extended above the main frame, and the second sign be for being extendable below the main frame;
- and
- a pole extending downward beneath the main frame for allowing one hand of a user to support the main frame in a raised position.
