  • Patent number: 5031777
    Abstract: A magnetic display holder for hair bows and other accessories having ferromagnetic parts comprising a base defining an outer peripheral edge and a top defining an outer peripheral edge. At least one support member connects the top and base together and supports the top in vertically spaced-apart relation to the base. A thin sheet or a plurality of thin bow-holding strips are connected to the respective peripheral edges of the top and base and extend substantially vertically between the base and the top of the display holder. Each of the strips define an outwardly facing side and an obverse inwardly-facing side. A plurality of magnets are positioned in vertically spaced-apart relation along the inwardly facing side of the bow-holding strips.The magnets exert sufficient magnetic attraction through the bow-holding strips to hold bows or other accessories having ferromagnetic parts solely by magnetic attraction to the outwardly facing side of the strip opposite the magnets.
