Abstract: A mirror assembly for use in observing an infant during travel in a vehicle in which the infant is located in a rear seat and faces toward the back of the vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a plate having a mirrored surface and a plate support having a plate receptacle on one side for holding an image forming surface of the plate in an outwardly exposed position. The plate support also has a tapered cross section in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plate with the width at the top of the support being larger than that at the bottom. Strap means are connected to the support and can be coupled to a rear seat back so as to hold the support in a selected lateral and vertical position on the seat back.
