Abstract: A wallpaper display package permits vertical display of wallpaper without causing a crease or other damage to the wallpaper. The display package comprises a card having a generally planar body portion of substantially uniform thickness configured to receive an elongate wallpaper sheet wound thereon. A pair of opposing tabs are positioned on and project from respective sides of the body portion lower end. Each tab has an upper portion configured to prevent the wound wallpaper from sliding over the body portion lower end. A pair of opposing slots are provided in the body portion adjacent the upper portions of each tab. The slots prevent the formation of a crease in the wallpaper when displayed vertically.

Abstract: A wall covering having a stain resistant outer surface comprises a reinforcing backing layer, an opaque vinyl polymer surfacing layer overlying a front surface of the backing layer, a layer of printing applied to the surfacing layer in selected areas to form a desired decorative pattern to the wall covering, and a stain resistant transparent top coating overlying the layer of printing and imparting stain resistant properties to the exposed outer surface of the wall covering. The top coating is comprised of at least one transparent vinyl polymer, a flattening pigment imparting a substantially non-glossy matte finish to the coating surface, and from about 0.1 to 4 percent by weight of a perfluoroalkyl copolymer, preferably a perfluoroalkyl methacrylate copolymer.
