DEVICE FOR DISPLAYING AND ARRANGING MAT BOARD SAMPLES
A device for displaying and holding mat board corner samples is provided. The device includes two end members, between which mat board corner samples can be seated. The end members may include a plurality of notches so that a plurality of generally L-shape mat board corner samples can be seated at varying offsets relative to each other. The end members may alternatively include flat surfaces so that generally chevron-shaped mat board corner samples can be slidably seated between the end members at varying offsets relative to each other. The end members are attached to a support and can be removable seated on a display board. Art work can be removable mounted on the display board as well. Thus, mat board corner samples that are seated between the two end members can be displayed in conjunction with art work to be framed.
1 . A device for displaying and holding mat board corner samples, comprising:
a support member;
two end members attached to the support member and spaced apart and oriented with respect to each other such that at least one mat board corner sample can be removably seated between the two end members at a plurality of locations; and
registration means extending from at least one of the support member and the two end members for removably seating the end members in a corner of a display board.
2 . The device as in claim 1 , wherein the two end members each include a plurality of notches, the notches being located on the two end members such that a first notch located on one end member and a second notch located on the other end member are located on the respective end members in a corresponding position such that they form a corresponding notch pair, each notch of the corresponding notch pair being sized and positioned to seat a respective outer end corner of an L-shaped mat board corner sample.
3 . The device as in claim 1 , wherein the two end members each include a respective flat surface, the two end members being spaced and orientated so that respective angled edges of a chevron-shaped mat board corner sample can be slidably seated between the flat surfaces.
4 . The device as in claim 3 , wherein at least one of the two end members includes a resilient compressible member extending from the flat surface of the end member, the resilient member being adapted to compress when a chevron-shaped mat board corner sample is slidably seated between the flat surfaces.
5 . A display holder for displaying and holding mat board corner samples, comprising:
a display board; and
two end members mounted near a corner of the display board and spaced apart and oriented with respect to each other such that at least one mat board corner sample can be removably seated between the two end members at a plurality of locations in said corner.
6 . The display holder as in claim 5 , wherein the two end members each include a plurality of notches, the notches being located on the two end members such that a first notch located on one end member and a second notch located on the other end member are located on the respective end members in a corresponding position such that they form a corresponding notch pair, each notch of the corresponding notch pair being sized and positioned to seat a respective outer end corner of a L-shaped mat board corner sample.
7 . The display holder as in claim 6 , wherein the two end members each include a respective flat surface, the two end members being spaced and orientated so that respective angled edges of a chevron-shaped mat board corner sample can be slidably seated between the flat surfaces.
