Abstract: A free-standing frame for a photo, a printed painting or any other sheet having decorative or informative data to be displayed. The frame is formed by a pair of superposed flexible plastic panels, at least the face panel being transparent, the sheet to be displayed being sandwiched therebetween. Threaded through holes in the panels is a cord which in the flat state of the frame has overlying the face panel a pair of parallel vertical cord sections on either side of the sandwiched sheet, and a pair of parallel horizontal cord sections behind the rear panel joining the ends of the vertical cord sections to define an endless cord rectangle which serves to loosely hold the panels together. When the rear cord sections are hooked together at their centers and converge to create a holding node, the resultant flexing of the panels which are then under tension acts to compress the sheet therebetween to maintain its frame position and to more effectively display the sheet.
