Abstract: A display device 10 comprises a base 11 with a profile 17 and a mask 12 movable relative to the base for close alignment therewith. An opening 39 defined within the mask 12 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the profile 17 so that when brought into close alignment, the profile 17 projects through the opening 39. Any sheets 50,51 of material laid over the profile are trapped between the base 11 and the mask 12 so that the profile 17 appears to be covered by the material. Any portion of the sheet 50, 51 extending beyond the profile 17 is concealed. The profile 17 may define at lease part of a human, character or animal body, and the sheets 50, 51 projecting through the opening 39 appear as clothing. The base 11 and the mask 12 may be hinged for relative pivoting movement of those parts.
