Abstract: An apparatus and method for displaying an item such as a vinyl record album on a wall. The apparatus includes first and second parts (6, 4) pivotably mounted to one another, one part including a window through which the item to be displayed may be viewed, one part including a catch element (18) for limiting relative rotation of the two parts, and one part including a hook or screw for mounting the apparatus on a wall.

Abstract: A display frame (1) has a front panel (2), a back or rear panel (3) and an artwork pocket (5) between the back and front panels. The front panel provides a border around an opening or window (7) to the artwork pocket (5). A slot (6) in an edge of the frame receives artwork into or allows artwork to be removed from the frame. A locking or cover panel (10) fits over or into the slot to close the artwork pocket (5). The frame can include an intermediate panel (4) between the front and back panels. The locking panel (10) can be retained in the slot by at least one locking mechanism such as locking tab (12) or (24). The locking panel (10) can be hooked into or onto the intermediate panel at one end of the slot (6) and then clipped into position by one or more locking tabs. One or more detent clips (50), can correspond with detent clip sockets or recesses (52) in the edges of the slot. Each detent clip (50) can have an arc shaped member in an end of the locking panel.

Abstract: An image support device has a support surface having a front face, a back surface, a bottom and a top. The support surface has secured thereto a visible light transmitting panel. The light transmitting panel preferably has a hinge towards the bottom of the support surface enabling a top of the light transmitting panel to be pulled away from the support surface in a non-destructive manner to create an opening behind the light transmitting panel. The opening behind the light transmitting panel is able to close and return to a closed position by elastic or spring tension to provide tension to an image placed behind the light transmitting panel. The top or the back of the support surface may have at least part of a wall connecting system attached thereto, or the opening may face away from a bottom of the device having a flat support base.
