Abstract: An eye-catching bold sign and method of making same wherein the sign has a digital, near-photographic image applied, using a digital file, to a transparent polymeric substrate. The sign further incorporates solid block or defined shapes that may be transparent, translucent, semi-translucent, or opaque. The shapes are defined by the same digital file and may be formed by layers of metallic or non-metallic paint, adhesive vinyl sheet, or discreet portions of either paint or vinyl sheet. The shapes are defined by selective removal of areas of an opaque backing.

Abstract: A display frame work is described in terms of a display header, with upper and lower horizontal tubes and vertical end tubes to define a rectangular frame to which a flexible cloth, paper or plastic header panel is attached. Each of the horizontal members has a central hinge with a horizontal pintle from which leaves extend in opposite directions when the device is assembled. One of the leaves is fixed in a central tube; the other is constructed to permit the tube to which it is mounted to slide toward and away from the pintle. The fixed leaf has a locking tab projecting beyond the pintle, and the sliding travel of the tube that is slidably mounted is from a position clear of the locking tab to one embracing the locking tab. Outboard end sections of the horizontal members are hinged to the central tube members in a way similar to that of the two central tubes, but on hinges pintles of which are oriented perpendicularly to the central member hinge pintle. The tubes are hollow and open ended.
